Jane Lambert, Regional General Manager, stated: “We are delighted to welcome Jim to the ActiveOps family. His extensive knowledge in the digital marketplace and technological expertise will demonstrate outstanding business acumen. We look forward to moving the company forward with Jim’s creative and innovative solutions to strategic business challenges with vision.”
As one of the world’s leading providers of management process automation solutions, ActiveOps has helped organisations improve how they measure and manage employee productivity, capacity, and wellbeing by using robust data capture tools and intelligent automation software.
In 2020 the world paused, and the future of operations became unclear for so many. ActiveOps guided its customers with high-quality data, giving operations leaders their ‘eyes and ears back’ while managing remote work.
As we have all moved through the ups and downs of the last 18 months, we’ve learned a lot, and now as we look ahead (knowing what we know now), we want to share that experience. Having Jim as our Regional Chair will only strengthen our focus and global vision across the company.” concluded Harper.
