FactSet names Di Hirji as chief people officer, effective Aug. 3

FactSet (NYSE: FDS | NASDAQ: FDS) has appointed Di Hirji as Chief People & Workforce Transformation Officer, effective August 3, 2026. She succeeds Catrina Harding, who is departing after three years and will remain in an advisory role during the transition.

Hirji most recently served as Chief People Officer for S&P Global Market Intelligence and S&P Dow Jones Indices. Before that, she held senior HR leadership roles at Thomson Reuters and spent eight years at Accenture in management consulting, leading change and organization development programs for Fortune 500 and FTSE 100 clients. Her career spans more than 20 years across Europe, Asia, and the Americas.

"As we accelerate our transformation to an AI-native company, how we design our organization, develop our people, and bring human and agentic capabilities together will be central to our success," said Sanoke Viswanathan, Chief Executive Officer of FactSet.

"Becoming an AI-native company is as much a people story as a technology one — how we work, the skills we build, and how humans and AI come together will define what FactSet becomes," Hirji said.

Harding said she is "proud of what we have built together" and expressed support for a smooth handover to Hirji.
