Nick Tomashot will retire as Lazydays Holdings chief financial officer. Kelly Porter will assume the chief financial officer role Nov. 15, 2022.
As part of the transition, Tomashot will remain with Lazydays as an advisor through the year’s end.
“I want to thank Nick for his leadership and dedicated service to Lazydays,” Lazydays Holdings CEO John North said “Nick has been a tremendous asset to the company, particularly in his efforts to lead our organization through the effects of the pandemic and associated supply chain disruptions. We wish him well in his retirement.”
Tomashot said building the team and infrastructure to position Lazydays for profitable growth has been energizing and rewarding.
“My service at Lazydays has been the crowning accomplishment of my professional career…,” Tomashot said. “I am confident the company is well positioned and financially structured to continue to expand and thrive. I look forward to working with John, Kelly and the rest of the management team as we continue to build on our momentum.”
