Groundswell Group Inc. Announces Expansion into the USA

Calgary, AB – February 2015 - Groundswell Group Inc. is pleased to announce the opening of its first US office in Seattle, Washington.

“It has long been our ambition to offer our services to clients in the United States,” says Darren Sartison, Groundswell's President. “The Pacific Northwest and Vancouver marketplaces are alike, not just geographically, but also in terms of business culture and outlook. As a result, it seemed natural to make our first significant US investment in a region; one we know well and have enjoyed success in, for over a decade, through our Vancouver office.”

Leading Groundswell’s entry into the US market is John Krpan, the company’s Director of US Operations. Krpan is a Certified Management Consultant with 30 years of progressive experience spanning consultancy leadership and operational roles at the senior executive level, including tenure as the CIO of a major corporation.

“Groundswell’s longstanding partnership with SAP, Oracle, TIBCO, Informatica and other leading Information Management product vendors will be integral to our success in Seattle,” adds Krpan. "As will providing our Seattle employees with an opportunity to advance their careers to the next level and beyond with the leading Information Management consultancy in Canada.”

Groundswell is currently actively recruiting a best-in-class employee team in the Seattle area. If you are interested in living and working in Seattle for an industry-leading, progressive organization, please contact [email protected].
