Jill Hazelbaker, currently Chief Marketing Officer and Senior Vice President, Communications & Public Policy, will assume a new role of President & Chief Corporate Affairs Officer, effective immediately. In this new role, Ms. Hazelbaker will assume Ms. Krishnamurthy’s previous responsibilities, as well as oversight of the Company’s Safety Operations function.
Dara Khosrowshahi, CEO, said: “When I joined Uber, I knew we needed to evolve—preserving our entrepreneurial spirit while building a company that consistently does the right thing. Nikki was one of my first calls because she embodies that balance of candor, collaboration, and determination. She has been a trusted partner, mentor, and friend, and her impact on Uber’s culture and trajectory will be lasting. I am deeply grateful for her many contributions.”
He continued: “As we enter a period of rapid change—from advances in AI to the growth of autonomous vehicles—how we show up and deliver matters more than ever. Jill brings the experience, judgment, and execution focus to meet that moment. She is a proven leader who translates priorities into results, and I am confident she will continue to strengthen how we grow, operate, and build trust globally.”
Ms. Hazelbaker, 44, has served as Chief Marketing Officer and Senior Vice President, Communications & Public Policy, since June 2019.

From January 2010 until October 2014, Ms. Hazelbaker held senior communications and public policy roles at Google. Prior to joining Google, Ms. Hazelbaker served as Press Secretary to Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s re-election campaign in New York City in 2009 and as the Communications Director for Senator John McCain’s U.S. presidential campaign from 2007 to 2008.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Hazelbaker and any other person pursuant to which Ms. Hazelbaker was appointed as President & Chief Corporate Affairs Officer of the Company.
