The appointment elevates Karine Hamel from her interim role, which she assumed in December 2023. She stepped into the position following the departure of Brandon Nussey, who resigned to pursue a different career opportunity after serving as the company's finance chief.

Internal Promotion and Continuity

Hamel is a veteran of the organization’s financial operations, having led Coveo's finance department since 2018. Her tenure has spanned several critical growth phases for the technology firm, making her a central figure in its long-term fiscal strategy.

According to the company, the decision follows a formal search process initiated in December that considered both internal and external candidates. By selecting Hamel, Coveo opts for institutional continuity as it continues to scale its AI-driven search offerings in a competitive enterprise market.
