Virtual Technologies Group Welcomes Greg Yarrington
Virtual Technologies Group (VTG), a prominent provider of IT, security, and cloud solutions, has announced the appointment of Greg Yarrington as the new Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Executive Vice President (EVP) of Technology. This move signals a significant step in VTG's commitment to scaling its operations and enhancing its technological offerings on a national level.
Greg Yarrington, who brings over ten years of deeply entrenched experience in the fields of operations and technical innovation, will be overseeing daily operations at VTG. Having previously excelled in leadership roles across various high-profile tech companies, including ECI and Nuspire, Yarrington's strategic insight is expected to fortify VTG's position in the competitive landscape of managed IT services and cybersecurity.
Yarrington's recent experience as COO at ECI highlights his capabilities in managing substantial teams and expanding operational capacities into global markets. Under his leadership, ECI was able to stabilize its workforce, a feat that speaks volumes about his skills in nurturing a productive work environment. VTG's CEO, Nick Jean-Baptiste, expressed considerable enthusiasm about Yarrington's arrival, emphasizing that his extensive experience aligns well with VTG's goals, particularly regarding operational efficiency and resource management in partnership with private equity stakeholders.
Before joining ECI, Yarrington played pivotal roles at major firms such as IBM Watson Health and Truven Health Analytics, where he was pivotal in shaping technical operations. His transition from Nuspire to VTG comes at a critical time, as VTG recently expanded its footprint by acquiring Quotient, Inc., focusing on providing IT solutions to U.S. Federal agencies.
Reflecting on his new role, Yarrington stated, "I aim to help VTG further enhance its reputation for delivering exceptional service across various sectors. My goals include refining our current offerings, scaling our workforce, and achieving operational excellence to support VTG's continued growth trajectory. This is indeed an exciting period for the company, and I am honored to be part of it."
Yarrington's academic credentials add further weight to his expertise. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Math from Cornell University and advanced degrees in Public Health (Yale), Business Administration (SUNY), and Healthcare Administration (University of Michigan).
Founded in 1962, VTG has established itself as a minority-owned IT solutions provider specializing in tailored cybersecurity and infrastructure management services. With over 1,000 customers nationwide, VTG continues to adapt to the fast-evolving technology landscape and is committed to fostering partner-based relationships that yield innovative solutions to meet diverse customer needs.
As VTG embarks on this new chapter under Yarrington's leadership, the expectation is that the company will not only expand its operational boundaries but also elevate its service quality to new heights, ensuring that it remains at the forefront of the IT and cloud services industry.
