Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company has confirmed that Christopher R. Delaney, President of the company’s Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) business unit, has taken a leave of absence effective 4 April 2025.

In response, the company has appointed Christina L. Zamarro, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, as interim head of the EMEA business. Zamarro will assume leadership responsibilities for the EMEA operations in addition to her existing role as CFO.

No details have been provided regarding the reason for Delaney’s leave or the expected duration of his absence.

The dual responsibility handed to Zamarro suggests Goodyear is relying on internal stability to maintain business continuity across a key market. The EMEA region remains a significant part of the company's global operations, and the temporary appointment underscores the strategic importance of strong financial oversight during this leadership transition.
