KANSAS CITY, Missouri (May 25, 2021) – CRB, an international leader in sustainable engineering, architecture, construction and consulting solutions to the food and beverage and life sciences industries, today announced that Alan Jones has joined the company as its new Vice President of Business Development. Jones – who has deep experience in establishing long-term client relationships across design, construction, manufacturing and other industries – will report to Lance Nordbak, CRB’s Chief Operating Officer for Regional Operations.
The appointment marks Jones’ homecoming at CRB, where he served from 2003-2010 as Director of Business Development.
