(NASDAQ: GOOG)<br \/>\nannounced today that George Reyes has informed the company of his<br \/>\nintention to retire as Chief Financial Officer.  Reyes indicated that<br \/>\nhe will remain to assist in the search for a new CFO and to assure an<br \/>\norderly transition, which Google expects will occur by the end of the<br \/>\nyear.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve known and admired George since our days together at Sun,&#8221; said<br \/>\nGoogle Chairman and CEO, Eric Schmidt.  &#8220;As Google&#8217;s CFO, George<br \/>\nsuccessfully navigated our innovative IPO, the regulatory demands of<br \/>\nSarbanes-Oxley, and the management challenges of scaling a global<br \/>\nfinance organization.  Though we fully appreciate his decision to step<br \/>\nback from active management, we&#8217;ll miss his thoughtfulness, good humor<br \/>\nand wisdom.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Working at Google these past 5 and a half years has been an<br \/>\nextraordinary ride,&#8221; said George Reyes.  &#8220;I&#8217;m honored and flattered to<br \/>\nhave been a part of this great management team. I know I&#8217;m leaving the<br \/>\ncompany in good hands with a remarkable team of professionals that<br \/>\nwill continue to build on Google&#8217;s tremendous achievements.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;George has been a full partner in Google&#8217;s global growth and<br \/>\ndevelopment,&#8221; added Google co-founder, Larry Page.  &#8220;He has done an<br \/>\nexcellent job in keeping us financially disciplined while protecting<br \/>\nthe best of our entrepreneurial culture.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google just sent out the following announcement.
