Amtivo Appoints Cristine Marion as Director of Technical Operations in the US.
Amtivo has welcomed Cristine Marion to the team as Director of Technical Operations for its US business. With more than 20 years in the certification industry, Cristine brings a wealth of experience to the role.
Cristine spent much of her career at NQA, building her expertise across a wide range of operational and technical roles before stepping up to Operations Director. In her most recent role, she looked after existing clients throughout their journey, from renewals and service growth right through to certificate issuance. That work gave her a real understanding of certification from both the client’s and the auditor’s point of view.
Now, Cristine is leading Amtivo’s US technical team. Her priorities include auditor service delivery and operational compliance. She’ll be working hand in hand with program managers, auditors and the compliance team to make sure operational goals and accreditation requirements are met together.
Randy Daugharthy, President of Amtivo in the US, said: “Cristine brings significant certification industry experience and a valuable understanding of how the different parts of a certification body need to work together effectively. Her appointment will support our continued focus on technical excellence, operational efficiency and the development of our auditor community as we grow. We’re delighted to welcome her to Amtivo.”
Cristine Marion said: “Having worked across so many different areas of a certification body, I’ve seen how closely technical compliance, operational efficiency, auditor experience and client service are connected. My focus will be on bringing those elements together, so that we continue to meet our accreditation requirements while developing our auditors and delivering the best possible service for our clients.
“I’m particularly looking forward to combining the knowledge I’ve built over the past 20 years with new ideas and approaches from across Amtivo as we continue to strengthen and scale the US business.”
Cristine’s appointment follows several recent additions to Amtivo’s leadership team, including Richard Stabbins as UK Managing Director and Jennifer Hegarty as Ireland General Manager and Group Chief of Staff.
