Jonathan Seiffer, a senior partner with private equity firm Leonard Green & Partners, has resigned from Signet’s board of directors.
His resignation takes effect following the conclusion of Signet shareholders’ annual general meeting, which was scheduled for today.
After the Signet board accepted Seiffer’s resignation, it passed a resolution reducing board size from 12 members to 11.
An SEC filing said that “Seiffer’s decision to resign was not due to any disagreement with the company on any matter, including relating to its operations, policies, or practices.”
Seiffer joined Signet’s board in 2019, three years after Leonard Green invested $625 million in Signet. In 2024, Signet Jewelers repurchased 50% of Leonard Green’s preferred shares ahead of maturity.
