That said, we have ambitious aspirations and Jay brings a new level of confidence and set of experiences that I believe will be invaluable to continuing our evolution at the next stage." Macpherson, who has built an impressive career and several businesses consulting with automotive dealers, will remain active in HR4 as President and Head of Product, while also serving on the company board.

      "I couldn't be more thrilled for the opportunity to join the incredible team at HR4 as we enter the next stage of growth as a leader in ROI-focused Human Capital Management solutions and an employer of choice for exceptional talent." said new CEO Hedges. "From the moment I met Heather, Bri and the team at HR4, I knew they were building a special company. HR4's suite of apps and how they impact the bottom line of 250 happy customers is inspiring.
