In addition, he was part of the team that shipped the first generation iPhone.

Finally, 15-year veteran Sainsbury previously served as Chief Revenue Officer of Blue Nile, and prior to joining the company, he was an associate consultant with management consulting firm Bain & Company.

In his new role as Chief Strategy Officer and President of International, he will drive the diamond and jewelry retailer’s long-range strategic planning initiatives, as well as growth and development of the company’s global operations.
