Alpharetta, GA (Vocus/PRWEB) January 20, 2011
According to Tony Stajduhar, President of Jackson & Coker’s Permanent Division, “Because we are in rapid growth mode, and our presence continues to expand, it only makes sense that we expand regionally.” The first order of business for Jackson & Coker is to bring on the best talent available that fits the company’s core values and culture. In December of 2010, Jackson & Coker added a new Director of Business Development, Joe Winings, to the West Regional Office located in Denver, Colorado. Mr. Stajduhar stated, “Joe brings a lot of experience and business relationships to us, and we believe his presence in the West will continue to show our commitment to our valued clients.”
Mr. Winings brings over 15 years of healthcare recruitment, staffing, and medical staff planning. In his career, he has spent time with one of the largest healthcare staffing companies in the country, serving as Vice President of National Sales. “Not only am I excited about joining Jackson & Coker, but I am looking forward to serving the hospitals in Colorado and the rest of the West with such an industry leader,” Winings proclaimed.
Jackson & Coker is especially eager to create this Western presence due to their relationship with the Colorado Hospital Association. “We have enjoyed our relationship with Jackson & Coker and look forward to having Mr. Winings here in Colorado to serve our hospitals state-wide,” affirmed Michael Scott, Vice President of the Colorado Hospital Association’s Shared Services Division. Jackson & Coker serves as the exclusive vendor of permanent physician recruitment for the Colorado Hospital Association’s Shared Services Division and has had this relationship for the last year.
