Oracle Corporation has appointed Hilary Maxson as Chief Financial Officer (CFO). She will report to CEO Clay Magouyrk and oversee the company’s global finance team, effective 6 April 2026.
Before joining Oracle, Maxson was Executive Vice President and Group Chief Financial Officer at Schneider Electric.
Maxson joins Oracle during a period of rapid growth as customer demand for cloud infrastructure exceeds supply.
“We are pleased that we found a financial leader that matches our culture of strong financial and operational discipline and has experience scaling capital intensive global organizations,” said Clay Magouyrk, CEO, Oracle. “Hilary’s experience spans industrial, infrastructure, and software businesses—sectors where capital intensity and execution excellence are critical to success. Alongside Mike Sicilia, CEO, we are looking forward to working together with our new CFO. I’d like to also thank Doug Kehring for running the finance organization the past six months as we prepared for this transition to Hilary. Doug will be returning his focus to helping optimize and accelerate our go-to-market operations.”
“Oracle has built extraordinary momentum at the intersection of cloud, AI, and industry applications. I’m excited to join at this pivotal moment, and I look forward to partnering with Clay, Mike, and the broader leadership team to continue to invest with discipline and to translate this momentum into durable, long‑term value for customers and shareholders,” said Hilary Maxson, CFO, Oracle.
Earlier in her career, Maxson spent 12 years at AES Corporation, holding senior roles in finance, strategy, and M&A. She also serves as a non-executive director and Chair of the Audit Committee at Anglo American plc.
