Medin Technologies said last week it tapped Bill Donaldson as its new chief executive officer, replacing Andy Novotny who is resigning from his position at the head of the company.
Prior to joining Medin Technologies, Donaldson served as president of Jeld-Wen Canada, leading the business unit during its parent company’s initial public offering, Totowa, N.J.-based Medin Technologies said.
Donaldson has also held positions with Circor’s KF Industries, Sagebrush Pipeline, Spence Engineering and Danaher’s Kollmorgen.
“I cannot imagine a more important and exciting time to join Medin Technologies. With an outstanding set of world-class customers who are demanding more and more of the company, Medin is well-positioned to grow and diversify its product offering. This is the perfect opportunity for me to combine my operating experience with my passion for working with customers. I look forward to working with this great team and leading Medin Technologies through its next exciting phase of growth,” Donaldson said in a prepared statement.
Novotny, who saw Medin Technologies through its acquisition by Seven Point Equity Partners, will stay on to assist with the transition, Medin said.
“We are thrilled to have Bill join us as CEO and as a member of the board. He brings outstanding leadership qualities, deep manufacturing experience, and a passion for delivering exceptional value to customers. Medin is growing quickly, and we are absolutely confident Bill is the right leader to maximize the company’s market opportunity in medical contract manufacturing and at the same time build on the company’s existing reputation for world-class quality and customer responsiveness,” Seven Point managing partner and Medin board member Tom Burchill said in a prepared release.
“Our medical device and orthopedic implant OEM customers have extremely high quality, design, and delivery expectations, and we believe Bill, with his strong track record of operational excellence, will enhance these already strong capabilities,” Seven Point partner and Medin board member Mark Kammert said in a press release.
