Saint John isn't the only high-level employee to take off since Khosrowshahi took over. Kalanick was ousted as CEO just weeks after the company announced Saint John's hire, and Khosrowshahi claimed the position two months later. She was hired under former CEO Travis Kalanick, who at the time was under fire for leadership that had led to a toxic culture emboldened by a company-wide lack of accountability. Saint John joined Uber from Apple, where she was head of global consumer marketing at Apple Music. Endeavor is the parent company of WME-IMG, where famed agent and founding partner Ari Emanuel is co-CEO.
In her new gig at Endeavor, Saint John will oversee a large portfolio of companies and brands across the entertainment, fashion and sports sectors. She is the latest in a flurry of exits since Dara Khosrowshahi's takeover as CEO. The embattled ridehailing company hired Saint John last June, with hopes her marketing chops could help shine a much-needed positive light on Uber. One year after joining Uber as its chief brand officer, Bozoma Saint John has left the company to become chief marketing officer at SoftBank-backed Hollywood talent agency Endeavor, per an internal memo obtained by Recode.
