VANCOUVER, BC — January 18, 2023 — Hootsuite today announced that the company’s board of directors has appointed Irina Novoselsky as Chief Executive Officer. She will assume leadership of the company, and a position on the board effective immediately. Novoselsky succeeds Tom Keiser who has stepped down from his position as CEO.
“We thank Tom for his leadership and service as he navigated the company through the pandemic and created a strong foundation for Hootsuite’s continued growth,” said Julie Herendeen, Board Chair.

“Hootsuite is the most trusted and recognized brand in social media management with nearly five times the customers of its nearest competitor — I’m honored to lead the company in its next growth chapter,” said Novoselsky. “Social media management is a largely untapped and growing $28 billion global market opportunity.
