CEO Damola Adamolekun emphasized that both leaders bring specific experience to the brand's ongoing turnaround. Pitts, who served as interim marketing chief since January 2026, previously managed agency partnerships for the chain. His track record includes roles at brands such as Wingstop and Dairy Queen, and he is credited with the recent launch of the Red Lobster Nation loyalty program. As CMO, he will focus on refining the company's digital marketing reach and deepening consumer loyalty across all sales channels.
