LMC names new vice president of technology
LMC announced the appointment of Jack Phipps as the forest products and building material cooperative’s new vice president of technology.
In this role, Phipps will be responsible for LMC's external focus on helping dealers adopt technology while providing leadership and guidance to the company's internal technology projects, the Wayne, Pennsylvania-based buying group said.
Phipps joins LMC from Recovery Centers of America (RCA), where he served as vice president of digital health. During his time at RCA, Phipps was responsible for the digital transformation of the patient and staff experience while treating substance abuse disorder and mental health concerns.
Prior to RCA, Phipps spent 13 years at U.S.Cellular, where he held various roles of increasing responsibility, including technology product development, business development, and overseeing a portfolio of application implementations and capabilities.
"We are excited to welcome Jack to the LMC family," said Paul Ryan, president of LMC. "His extensive experience in technology, coupled with his leadership and strategic guidance, will be invaluable to our efforts to help dealers adopt technology and improve our internal technology projects."
LMC is owned by independent lumber and building material dealers with more than 1,600 locations in the United States and the Bahamas.
