Ju-Hwa Yoon, formerly head of Samsung's corporate audit team, will take the role of chief financial officer. The changes to Samsung Electronics' leadership come as the company undergoes a significant restructuring that will see its different divisions begin operating more like independent companies, each with their own president and chief financial officer. To do this, the company will change its structure, replacing 10 different divisions that operated under two business groups with a flatter structure comprised of seven independent companies, each reporting directly to the top executives.
