As CFO, Cobb will be responsible for all financial activities including accounting, financial reporting, planning and analysis, investor relations, mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”), taxes, and treasury to support the Company’s overall growth objectives.
Cobb joined the Heritage team in 2017 as the Director of Financial Reporting, with extended responsibilities to manage corporate and divisional accounting functions and personnel. In 2019, he was promoted to be the Corporate Controller where he played key roles in bringing Heritage Global from the OTC market to the Nasdaq, and in the execution of the Company’s public offering in 2020. In 2021, Cobb was once again promoted to Vice President of Finance where he has been an integral part of the Heritage executive team.
Prior to joining the Company, he gained over 10 years of progressive accounting and managerial experience primarily at PricewaterhouseCoopers. Cobb graduated Cum Laude from the College of Business Administration at California State University San Marcos.
“Brian has added tremendous value to the Heritage team over the last five years and brings a depth of experience to the role,” said Ross Dove, CEO. “Brian knows our business well and shares our values. We are excited to have him take this next step with us as we move the Company forward.”
