“While the rest of the world was grappling with payroll processes during the pandemic, Jessica was already aligning her teams to run payroll for our clients 100% from home; something we had never previously imagined would be possible,” Magliuglo added. “Jessica’s leadership skills and track record with our clients and associates will be an invaluable addition, as we grow the ADP brand in the region.”
