Insights

Corporate governance analyst

Alight discloses a planned CFO transition with an internal interim successor.

Alight is undergoing an executive transition as Chief Financial Officer Jeremy J. Heaton resigns effective January 9, 2026. The company explains he is leaving to pursue another opportunity outside the benefits administration space and explicitly notes that his decision was not due to any disagreement over operations, policies, practices, or financial reporting. This framing presents the move as a personal career decision rather than a response to internal issues.

The Board has appointed Greg Giometti, currently Senior Vice President and Head of Financial Planning and Analysis, as Interim CFO effective on the same date. Selecting a long-tenured internal finance leader suggests continuity in Alight’s financial planning processes, as he will retain his FP&A responsibilities while serving as Interim CFO. The company also clarifies there are no special appointment arrangements, no family relationships with other leaders, and no related-party transactions involving Giometti.

From a governance perspective, the key factor is how smoothly responsibilities transition through and after January 9, 2026. Subsequent disclosures may outline when a permanent CFO is selected and whether any changes in financial policies or reporting structure accompany that appointment.
