The search is on for Gemological Institute of America’s (GIA’s) new president and chief executive officer (CEO).
The institute’s board announced it has commissioned DHR International to find a replacement for Donna M. Baker, who resigned abruptly last month.
“GIA is an enduring institution with a strong management team, a global presence, and 1800 dedicated staff around the world,” said board chair and interim president and CEO Susan M. Jacques.
“With this strong foundation, I am confident the institute will continue to fulfil its mission to protect the global gem- and jewellery-buying public through gemmological research, professional education, gem identification, and grading laboratory services.”
DHR International specializes in recruiting executives. Anyone interested in discussing qualifications for the position can contact DHR International at (612) 252-9309 or e-mail aross@dhrinternational.com.Â
