The VGM Group has named Jeff Rummel its new chief financial officer.

Rummel replaces Mike Mallaro, who became VGM’s CEO last year following the death of founder Van G. Miller in October 2015. Rummel joined VGM in 2015 as the member services group’s controller and VP of accounting.

In a news announcement, Mallaro said, “In Jeff’s time at VGM, he has endeavored to understand our various businesses in the depth needed to contribute meaningful counsel. He has overseen our corporate accounting department and its various financial functions and has worked closely with our numerous business units and their leaders to optimize business performance.”

Rummel’s new responsibilities include “providing strategic and financial perspectives to business decisions made at VGM,” the company said.

“VGM is a great company with a solid foundation and an exciting future,” Rummel said in the news announcement. “I look forward to continuing my work with our various divisions and expanding my role to be more involved in the future successes of our employee-owned company and the businesses we serve.”
