The added responsibilities follow the departure of Steve Kessel, the former SVP of physical stores who announced his resignation late last year. Most of Kessel's direct reports, like VP of physical stores Dilip Kumar and Whole Foods CEO John Mackey, have moved over to Clark's group as a result. The teams run by Neil Lindsay, VP of Prime and marketing, and Gur Kimchi, VP of Prime Air, have been reassigned to Clark's team earlier last year.

The Georgia-native grew up in an entrepreneurial household. He learned how to drive a forklift when he was 12-years old to help his parent's business, and in high school, worked at a Publix supermarket. A music major at Auburn University, Clark got through school in part by working as the equipment and logistics person for the music department.
