Jacob Mair has accepted the position of Senior Director of Financial Accounting and Reporting, effective immediately. Mair has most recently served as Director of Financial Reporting and Accounting, was a leader on the Finance Strategic Transformation Project, and was even recognized last year with a Leonard Sandridge Award for his work and dedication throughout the FST project.
This new role will have broader engagement regarding our annual audit and collaboration with the Medical Center, along with a greater focus on our external reporting and compliance needs. As so many are assisting with transitions and personnel changes, Mair has also agreed to provide interim oversight of our State and General Accounting area as well as our Financial Compliance area.
UVAFinance is making steady progress in filling key vacancies with capable leaders who have demonstrated success in terms of doing the work and leading teams. We're grateful for Mair's commitment to UVA and our stakeholders and for always being up for a challenge.
