CHICAGO –

Cars.com has named a new chief financial officer.

Moving into the role on Monday will be Becky Sheehan, who previously was executive vice president and CFO for FTD Companies.

In that position, she also served as a member of the office of the chief executive officer.

Her 10-year tenure there included her time directing FTD’s initial public offering in 2013. Sheehan also spent close to two decades in public accounting, including a position as audit partner with Deloitte.

"In this next phase of our evolution, Cars.com is poised for expansion and revenue growth, and we're excited to have Becky aboard as an experienced public company executive who will be a critical leader in our spin from TEGNA and beyond," Alex Vetter, president and chief executive officer of Cars.com, said in a news release.

"She is a proven leader who understands our goal of becoming the leading decision engine that moves people through the car ownership lifecycle with transparent, fun and engaging experiences, and is passionate about building a business that will help us realize this mission."

Sheehan said: "I'm thrilled to have this opportunity to help guide the growth of another fast-growing, publicly traded technology company and I look forward to applying the considerable experience that I gained while transforming FTD's online consumer business to my new role at Cars.com. Together with Alex and the great team at Cars.com, we'll enhance our leadership position, achieve our growth strategy and fulfill our purpose of helping people win."
