Fitterling, who has worked with Dow for 32 years, previously held the position of vice chairman and chief operating officer. In his new role, he will continue to have executive accountability for all of Dow’s businesses excluding Dow AgroSciences.

Liveris said, “Jim has been a tremendous leader for Dow for more than three decades and has spent his entire career at our great company. He is performing a critical role for our team in the work that is already well underway on the completion of the DowDuPont merger and the subsequent establishment of the three previously announced independent public companies that will be created at the end of the process.”
