Data-center operator Equinix is bringing a Google executive on board as part of a leadership transition planned for late in the second quarter.

The real-estate investment trust that runs data centers worldwide said Charles Meyers, president and chief executive officer, will move to the role of executive chairman.

Adaire Fox-Martin will serve as president and CEO. She most recently served as president of go-to-market for Google Cloud and head of Google Ireland.

Executive Chairman Peter Van Camp will step away from his formal responsibilities as a board member to take on the role of special adviser to the board.
