Conduent taps finance and risk expert Greta Van for board
NEW JERSEY, UNITED STATES — Conduent, a global technology-driven business solutions company, has appointed Greta Van to its Board of Directors.
Van brings over two decades of leadership experience in finance, audit, and enterprise risk management (ERM) to the role, bolstering the board’s governance capabilities as the company advances its strategic transformation.
Strengthening enterprise risk management and governance
Van’s appointment will significantly strengthen the board’s ability to navigate complex regulatory and operational landscapes.
As Harsha Agadi, Chief Executive Officer of Conduent, notes, “Greta is an exceptional leader with broad experience across governance, risk, and strategy, and her deep operational and financial expertise makes her a valuable addition to our Board.”
Her arrival follows a major leadership change at Conduent, which recently saw Agadi appointed as CEO and Margarita Paláu-Hernandez promoted to independent Board Chair.
Van currently serves as the Chief Audit Executive of Jack Henry and Associates, a financial technology and payment processing firm. In this role, she advises the board and audit committee on internal controls, governance, and enterprise risk. She also oversees public company compliance and high-value strategic consulting projects.
This first-hand, practical experience in a publicly traded fintech company provides her with immediate insight into Conduent’s governance models.
She has previously held leadership positions at PRGX, Infor Global Solutions, and Crawford and Company, building deep expertise in M&A, information security, business continuity, and operational integration.
Driving operational excellence and strategic priorities
Beyond her risk management credentials, Van is recognized for her ability to modernize internal functions and act as a strategic business partner.
Agadi emphasized, “Her ability to modernize complex functions, strengthen enterprise risk frameworks, and enhance board‑level reporting will help us advance our strategic priorities and deliver value to our clients, associates, and shareholders.”
Under her leadership at Jack Henry, Van transformed the internal audit role, expanded its consulting audit services, and reduced the cost of external audit contracts.
“Conduent’s focus on technology‑driven solutions, operational excellence, outstanding client service and quality, and disciplined transformation aligns strongly with my professional experience,” Van commented.
“I look forward to partnering with the Board and leadership team to help further accelerate performance and strengthen governance across the enterprise.”
