The ADT Corporation

today announced the appointment of Jerri DeVard to the position of senior vice president, chief marketing officer. DeVard, who most recently served as executive vice president, chief marketing officer of Nokia Corporation, will report directly to Naren Gursahaney, ADT's president and CEO. She will assume her post effective March 31, 2014. In her new role, DeVard will lead ADT's marketing efforts across the Residential, Small Business, and Health business units. She will oversee all strategic, operational and financial aspects of the company's integrated marketing programs, including brand advertising, digital marketing, communications, lead generation, sponsorships, and other initiatives. Before joining ADT, DeVard served as Nokia's first chief marketing officer.

I look forward to working with the ADT team to fully leverage the strength of the ADT brand and accelerate growth across the enterprise.” DeVard succeeds Tony Wells, who is leaving the organization after two years of service as ADT's chief marketing officer. Wells will stay with the company for several months to ensure a smooth transition of responsibilities.
