About Us
Brian Lantz is a seasoned business leader with a four-decade career defined by driving growth, transformation, and high-performing teams across major corporate milestones — including two public company spin-offs and a listing move from London to the NYSE.
He most recently served as Vice President, Investor Relations and Communications at Ferguson, where he shaped the company's financial narrative and led communications with investors, media, and other stakeholders — including spearheading the transition of sell-side coverage and the share register from the U.K. to the U.S.
Prior to Ferguson, Brian spent a decade at Fortune Brands, building the IR and communications functions from the ground up and rising to Senior Vice President with a broad portfolio spanning investor relations, corporate communications, government affairs, and corporate administration. His career in IR began at Hanesbrands, where he led the spin-off from Sara Lee and established the investor relations function for the newly formed public company.
Brian holds a B.S. in Business Administration/Finance from West Virginia University and an MBA from the University of Tampa.
