Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr. has a new job: vice chairman and president of strategic growth at Mastercard.

Jon Huntsman Jr. has been hired to manage Mastercard’s public sector partnerships and company sustainability

Mastercard CEO Michael Miebach said Huntsman’s experience in public policy and private business will be “extremely valuable as we build the future of Mastercard.” Huntsman was governor of Utah from 2005 to 2009, leaving that job months after reelection to become President Barack Obama’s ambassador to China. He ran for the Republican nomination for president in 2012, losing to fellow Utahn Mitt Romney. In 2020, he ran to reclaim the governor’s office, but lost in the Republican primary to then-Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox.
