Uber has announced a leadership change in its finance team. Long-time company executive Balaji Krishnamurthy will take over as the new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as current CFO Prashanth Mahendra-Rajah steps down from the role.

Even after leaving the CFO position, Mahendra-Rajah will remain with Uber as a senior finance advisor to CEO Dara Khosrowshahi until July 1, 2026, ensuring a smooth transition.
