Rayonier Announces Wood Products Leadership Transition

 

Rayonier Inc. has announced that Ashlee Townsend Cribb has resigned as Executive Vice President, Wood Products to accept a CEO opportunity with a privately-owned, specialty wood products manufacturer that Rayonier does not consider to be a competitor. Cribb will remain at the Rayonier until March 20, to assist with an orderly transition of her responsibilities.

“On behalf of our Board of Directors and the entire team at Rayonier, I want to thank Ashlee for her significant contributions to our Wood Products business since 2021, including her leadership through the recent merger of equals between Rayonier and PotlatchDeltic,” says Mark McHugh, President and CEO. “During Ashlee’s tenure, she has overseen significant operational improvements and developed a strong team of leaders in the Wood Products business, leaving it well positioned for the future. We wish Ashlee continued success in her future endeavors.”

Ryan Daniels, currently Senior Vice President, Operations of the Wood Products business, will assume leadership of the Wood Products business on an interim basis. Rayonier will conduct a search for a permanent successor, which may include internal and external candidates. Daniels has over 20 years of wood products manufacturing experience. Prior to joining PotlatchDeltic in 2023, he served in roles of increasing responsibility at several large-scale wood products manufacturing companies, including Weyerhaeuser, Georgia-Pacific, and Coastal Forest Resources Co. He holds a B.S. degree in Industrial Engineering and an M.S. degree in Industrial Engineering from the University of Arkansas.
