Ecovyst Inc. named Laurie Bergman as its new chief financial officer, effective Aug. 24, as Michael Feehan prepares to leave the company by Sept. 30 to complete a transition of his duties.
Bergman, 49, joins Ecovyst from Legacy Food Group, where she has served as CFO since July 2024. Her prior roles include CFO of Liquid Environmental Solutions from June 2021 to June 2024 and senior finance positions at UGI Corporation from February 2019 to June 2021.

In addition to her executive roles, Bergman serves on the boards of Arq Inc. and QNB Corp., where she chairs the audit committee at Arq and sits on the audit committee at QNB Corp.
Ecovyst, listed on the NYSE under the ticker ECVT, operates in Wayne, Pennsylvania, and focuses on regenerated and virgin sulfuric acid, sulfur dioxide and related derivatives. Feehan’s departure follows his tenure as CFO, during which the company continued to expand its specialty chemicals portfolio.
