PEMCO Expands Jacksonville Team with Three New Hires

Progressive Employer Management Company (PEMCO), a Professional Employer Organization (PEO), has added three new business consultants to the experienced staff in its Jacksonville office. Dede Ebelt, Chad Blenden, and Heidi Segona will help support the local business community with human resources, payroll administration, workers’ compensation, and risk management services.

“Jacksonville is home to prominent corporations and organizations,” said Kim Rutledge, regional sales manager of PEMCO’s Jacksonville office. “We wanted to strengthen our team in the region to stand behind businesses as their full human resources staff. Dede, Chad and Heidi are experienced and talented individuals that will help serve our growing client base.”

Ebelt, a native of the Jacksonville area and a graduate of Florida State College, comes to PEMCO with almost 10 years of experience in the PEO industry. She brings a wealth of human resources outsourcing and business development knowledge to help build and foster strong relationships within the growing local business community.

Blenden brings 16 years of experience in executive sales to the team, four of which are in the PEO industry. With an education in business management and his experience in consultative selling to C-level executives, he’ll be an asset to the Jacksonville team.

Segona is a graduate of the University of Memphis and is originally from Melbourne, Florida. She has eight years of experience with human capital management services with specialties in payroll and tax compliance services for small- to medium-sized businesses.
