Vestis Corporation Appoints Phillip Holloman as Interim Executive Chairman, President, and CEO
Vestis Corporation, a provider of uniforms and workplace supplies, announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Phillip Holloman as Interim Executive Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, in a news release. Holloman succeeds Kim Scott, who has departed from the Company and the Vestis Board of Directors.
“As we embark on a new chapter following the completion of Vestis’ first fiscal year as a public company, the Board agrees now is the right time for this transition,” said Doug Pertz, Vice Chairman of the Board. “Phillip brings decades of industry experience and a robust understanding of Vestis’ strategy and overall operations, making him uniquely suited to serve as Interim Executive Chairman, President, and CEO. The Board is confident Phillip is the right leader to oversee the execution of Vestis’ strategy while we identify a successor.”
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
