Eaton on Monday said Ruiz, currently president and chief operating officer of its industrial sector, will become president and chief operating officer of the Dublin-based company on Sept. 2 and take the reins as chief executive on June 1, 2025.
Arnold, who has been Eaton's chairman and CEO since June 2016, will retire on May 31, 2025, as he reaches the company's mandatory officer retirement age of 65.
