Altria said Sal Mancuso officially stepped into his new role as chief executive.

Mancuso, who is succeeding Billy Gifford, started the role after the cigarette company's annual meeting Thursday.

Altria appointed Mancuso in December 2025 after Gifford announced plans to retire.

Mancuso has been with the company since 1990 and has served as finance chief since 2020.

Heather Newman, Altria's chief strategy and growth officer since March 2022, is succeeding Mancuso as finance chief.
