LocumTenens.com promoted Executive VP Lisa Kaeck to COO, a new role within the company, and Senior VP Kevin Thill to executive VP. The company is part of Jackson Healthcare, the second-largest US provider of locum tenens staffing.

Kaeck is a founding partner of LocumTenens.com, having worked with Jackson Healthcare’s Rick Jackson to establish it in 1995. She will lead the company’s day-to-day operations, including several sales, recruiting and operations-focused teams. She will also play an integral role in strategic planning and policy development.

“As a founder, Lisa has been a constant force in the direction of the company,” said President Chris Franklin. “She has an internal compass that simply always points to the right thing to do. Lisa has left not only an indelible mark on the company, but also on the lives of those of us who have had the good fortune of calling her our teammate, manager, mentor, partner or friend.“

Thill joined LocumTenens.com in 1998 as a sales associate on the company’s psychiatry team. He became a partner in the company in 2005 and has served on the executive team since 2008.

Beloved by the teams he leads, Kevin is a great example of achieving success by putting people first.”
