Adecco SA said that its Chief Executive Officer Alain Dehaze would step down. Subsequently, the company has appointed Denis Machuel as new CEO with effect from July 1. The transition is scheduled to take place after a four week-long handover period in June. Machuel was most recently Group CEO of Sodexo, a company with over 400,000 staff members in 56 countries.

Prior to Sodexo, Machuel spent 16 years with Altran Group.
