Whitney Wolfe, founder and Chief Executive Officer of popular dating application Bumble, announced on Monday that she’s stepping down from her role as company CEO after almost a decade in the position.
Wolfe is expected to finish her post on Jan. 2, afterwhich she will be succeeded by Slack CEO Lidiane Jones.
However, Wolfe is still set to stay on as Bumble’s Executive Chair.
“This move to Executive Chair gives me the ability to step forward into a new and exciting role, get back to my founder roots and bring immense passion and focus to this next chapter of growth,” said Wolfe in a statement.
