I love that I’m able to help attract some of the top industry talent to the city and our company, while retaining a best-in-class workforce,” said Sanford. “I’m thrilled to step into this new position within Nextech. I’ve always loved this company, our values and philosophy. I am honored to be able to continue developing our strong culture and workforce in a greater capacity.”

During this key stage of Nextech’s growth, Partington will accelerate programs and unify messaging, growing and developing the company’s lead generation programs, product positioning and overall client success in the market.
“One of the main things that drew me to Nextech is the fact that the work we do here actually makes peoples’ lives better. I’m excited to be part of an organization that truly makes a difference,” Partington said. “My vision for Nextech and my teams is to guide the personal development of everyone that works on my teams with the goal of improving his or her own skills and talents. That personal progress can then lead to overall company improvement, which will ultimately benefit our clients and our solutions, as well.”
