A member of the Executive Committee, Spence will leave the group as of 30 September 2019.
She is joining Beam Suntory in the position as president, brands, and will relocate to the USA, the company said.
In 2012, Spence joined the Carlsberg Group's Asia region and has been globally responsible for the group's clerical functions since 2015.

“We'd like to thank Jessica for her strong commitment to the Carlsberg Group and we wish her every success in her new endeavours,” said Cees't Hart, CEO.
