After 13 years with parent company Williams-Sonoma (San Francisco), CEO of Pottery Barn Brands Martha Benson is retiring effective April 26.

Benson stepped in as CEO last January after serving as Pottery Barn’s President for almost seven years. Taking on Benson’s responsibilities are Pottery Barn President Monica Bhargava and Jennifer Kellor, President of Pottery Barn Kids and Pottery Barn Teen.

“It has been an absolute privilege to contribute to Williams-Sonoma, Inc., the capstone of a 35-year career in specialty multi-channel retail,” Benson said in an announcement made by the company. “I have so much respect for the passionate teams that have built such a powerful platform and the most beautiful family of brands in our industry with an authentic commitment to quality, service and sustainability.”
