CrossVue Enters New Growth Phase: Bart Thielbar appointed CEO and Jill Jones Transitions to President and Chief Strategy Officer 

Chicago, IL, November 8, 2024 — CrossVue, a trusted Workday deployment partner for over 10 years with deep expertise in regulated industries, is pleased to announce Bart Thielbar as the company’s new Chief Executive Officer. Current CEO Jill Jones will step into the role of President and Chief Strategy Officer, focusing on CrossVue’s long-term strategic vision, innovation, and strategic accounts. This transition reflects CrossVue’s commitment to growth and signals an exciting new chapter for the firm.  

In his role as CEO, Bart will drive the Company’s growth initiatives and operational efficiencies as it scales. Previously, Bart served as CEO of Utegration, which reached sustained 20% growth, was recognized as a Top Workplaces USA for three consecutive years and achieved industry leading customer satisfaction scores. Bart’s strategic expertise positions him well to support CrossVue’s ongoing expansion.  

“This transition is a pivotal moment in CrossVue’s journey,” said Jill. “With Bart’s operational acumen and commitment to high-quality work and exceptional customer service, I am excited to bring him onboard. Together, we bring complementary strengths that will create a powerful platform to elevate CrossVue’s vision and impact. Bart and I share a unified commitment to driving excellence, and I am confident he will lead CrossVue with the same passion and dedication that our clients, partners, and employees have come to expect.”  

Bart brings a collaborative leadership approach centered on supporting colleagues, clients, and shareholders alike, a philosophy he demonstrated by turning Utegration into a top-rated workplace and a trusted partner for clients. “I believe balancing the needs of our team members, customers, and shareholders is essential for sustainable growth,” said Bart. “At CrossVue, I’m committed to upholding our standards of quality, service, and integrity while furthering our innovative, people-focused approach. I am excited to partner with Jill and the entire CrossVue team to build on the strong foundation established here.”  

The decision is supported by CrossVue’s board and executive team as part of a deliberate succession strategy for the company. According to Chris Lewis, Chairman of the CrossVue board, “Jill’s leadership was instrumental as we successfully established CrossVue as a separate operating entity following our divestiture from CrossCountry Consulting. This new role for Jill enables her to help strategically steer the Company to meet the demands of the market in the years to come. With Bart at the helm, we are poised for continued growth. His operational expertise and collaborative management style will fuel CrossVue’s momentum and drive our ambitious plans for the future.”
