Jamaica Promotions Corporation president steps down
President Diane Edwards of the Jamaica Promotions Corporation (JAMPRO) announced her resignation effective by the end of the year.
Edwards stated that she will enter into her next career opportunities after having served for 9 consecutive years with JAMPRO, driving the company’s reputation as responsive and constantly helpful.
Under her leadership, JAMPRO transformed into a leading government organization that has provided local and international investors in the tourism, manufacturing, and mining sectors with significant assistance to overcome difficulties as they seek to engage in business in Jamaica.
Melanie Subratie, Chair of JAMPRO expressed her appreciation with Edwards saying; “I have long been a champion of the sterling work done by JAMPRO and as a fellow female leader, I have admired Diane’s transformation of the organization into a client-centric, results driven agency, leading the cause of the private sector.”
“I am sorry to see her go, but I know that she has led a remarkable team who will continue her stellar work. There is no doubt in my mind that the Jamaica BPO industry would not exist in its current form without the work of Diane and her team at JAMPRO. They literally built an industry from the ground up,” She added.
Subratie will continue to work with Edwards for a smooth and seamless transition.
Meanwhile, The JAMPRO Board, supported by its Human Resource Committee, will immediately begin the process to recruit a new President.
