PHOENIX, March 10, 2010 — Joan (Ordway) Jordan, C.P.M., has been named Managing Director of Sanford Rose Associates(R)-Phoenix, one of several new Sanford Rose Associates executive search offices opening in recent months. Most recently, Jordan served as Vice President, Supply Chain Development at Cypress Semiconductor. With a 30-year career in product and process manufacturing industries, Jordan is a natural fit to spearhead the Global Supply Chain practice which will be the predominant focus of the Phoenix office.
Rich Carter, Ph.D., President and CEO of SRA International, Inc., an Ohio corporation, the franchisor of Sanford Rose Associates, is quick to point out, "Joan has been on both sides of the desk. She has been both client and candidate in the retained search process at various points in her career. Her insider's understanding of the industry will also be a real asset to her clients. We are very excited to have her join our network."
Joan Jordan says, "I'm excited and confident I can add value for my clients by combining my industry experience with the Sanford Rose Associates Dimensional Search(R) methodology, refined over its 50 years in business." One of the things that drew her to Sanford Rose Associates was its staying power — a strength she hopes to bring to the Sanford Rose Associates-Phoenix practice. Sanford Rose Associates-Phoenix serves clients who are looking to fill middle and upper management positions in manufacturing and distribution industries.
Sanford Rose Associates was founded in 1959. Today it is a full-service executive search firm with a network of over 65 offices in North America, Europe and Asia. Sanford Rose Associates founder Sanford M. Rose was a recruiting industry pioneer.
