Intuit Inc. announced that Ben Chestnut has made the decision to step back from his role as CEO of Intuit Mailchimp to take on a Business Advisor role within the organization. Mailchimp became a part of Intuit's Small Business and Self-Employed Group in November 2021 following its acquisition by Intuit. Since the transaction closed, Ben has served as CEO of Mailchimp.

Going forward, Ben will remain a part of Mailchimp's senior leadership team, helping drive product innovation at Mailchimp while also leaning in on talent recruitment in the burgeoning Atlanta technology corridor. A key ambassador for the brand, Ben will continue to support Intuit's growing presence in the Atlanta technology, business and civic communities, which is strong as a result of the longstanding investment Mailchimp has made since its founding there in 2001. Rania Succar, a six-year veteran of Intuit, will add the role of Intuit Mailchimp CEO to her responsibilities.

In her role as SVP of the QuickBooks Money Platform, Rania has a proven track record of accelerating business growth, and building and leading global teams through transformation. She brings to bear a wealth of experience from her prior roles at Merrill Lynch, McKinsey and Google, as well as her graduate and undergraduate studies at Harvard. Under Rania's leadership, the QuickBooks Online Payments business has grown three-fold since she took the helm in 2018.

Since Mailchimp is part of the Intuit Small Business Self-Employed segment, as Intuit Mailchimp CEO and SVP of the QuickBooks Money Platform, Rania will remain a part of the SBSEG leadership team reporting to Alex Chriss.
