The appointment of Sleight, who resigned from Allied Domecq in January for personal reasons, comes at a key time for Coca-Cola, which is investing heavily in the UK launch of its Z no-added sugar range and Minute Maid fruit juice.
Before joining Allied Domecq in 2001, Sleight was director of brand marketing for Britvic brands including Pepsi, Tango and Robinsons.
Sleight will take up the post on July 25.
