CALGARY, Alberta – April 28, 2022 – Benevity, Inc., a leading provider of global corporate purpose software, today announced Jane Moran as the company’s Chief Technology Officer (CTO). The announcement comes as the company continues its rapid global growth and responds to the increasing demand for its market-leading products to help more companies become purpose-driven and scale their impact. Jane originally joined Benevity in April 2021 as Chief Data Officer.

In the role of CTO, Jane will lead the charge in delivering Benevity’s bold and innovative ESG-tech solutions as more companies around the world recognize the critical importance purpose brings to attracting, retaining and engaging employees and customers. Working with Scott Lee, Benevity’s Chief Product Officer, Jane will help propel Benevity’s growth and enable more companies, from mid-market to enterprise, engage stakeholders in ESG, purpose and social impact initiatives.
