Domino’s Pizza on Monday named Joseph Jordan chief operating officer and president of its U.S. market as part of a trio of executive changes at the pizza chain. 

The Ann Arbor, Michigan-based company also named Weiking Ng EVP-international. Ryan Mulally was named general counsel and corporate secretary. All three executives will report to CEO Russell Weiner. 

All three executive moves are also promotions. Weiner called them “talented and respected leaders” and said that Domino’s is “fortunate to have such a strong bench of talent to move into these important roles.” 

Jordan had been Domino’s president U.S. and global services since May 2022 and has worked with the company since 2011. He will now oversee domestic operations and marketing as well as Domino’s Technology. 

His new title of COO represents a shift in organizational structure, Weiner said.

Ng had overseen Domino’s Asia, Middle East and Africa markets and had worked with the chain since 2020. He will take over Domino’s international business and franchise relationships starting on April 1. 

Mulally will take over as general counsel on Saturday, having worked as VP and assistant general counsel since 2018. He has worked with Domino’s since 2008. 

The management changes come as Domino’s deals with an evolving market for delivery in the U.S., as third-party delivery companies take share and lower-income consumers cut back on their restaurant visits. Domino’s same-store sales increased 0.4% in the fourth quarter.
