ATLANTA – Bedding veteran Bob Hellyer has joined Serta Simmons Bedding on a full-time basis as the company’s chief supply chain officer. He had been working at SSB on an interim basis.
In his new role, Hellyer is responsible for leading the operations organization and collaborating closely with SSB’s marketing and sales teams to deliver high-quality products to SSB customers, officials said.
Hellyer has served as a consultant to SSB since early 2019.
