CIENCE Names Michele Crocker Chief Operating Officer

CIENCE has named operations specialist Michele Crocker as Chief Operating Officer, moving into a newly created role as our company continues to experience unprecedented growth. She will be responsible for implementing operational strategies and building best-in-class teams for the organization.

“Coming off of record growth, our opportunity pipeline is growing faster than ever. Michele joins the company at a pivotal time to give us greater leadership capacity to cover more ground, assess more opportunities, and speed decision-making to best serve customers.” —John Girard, CEO of CIENCE.

Michele joined CIENCE earlier this year after more than twenty years in various operations roles with companies such as British Airways, UPS, DHL Express, and Herbalife.
