New president at KJT Group

Gascon joined the company in 2007 and has served as chief operating officer since 2016. She will continue to serve as chief operating officer in addition to company president.

In her expanded role, Gascon will be responsible for overall business operation. Tomaszewski, the company’s founder and chief executive, will remain CEO and serve as board chair.

The move follows the company’s change to employee ownership in August 2019.

Tomaszewski said: “Michaela’s strengths and experience as COO make her well prepared to further enhance our operational excellence. Our board, executive team and operating committees have actively sought to drive the company culture and business model towards these transitions, through strategic planning.”
