April Anslinger has been elevated to Chief Marketing and Experience Officer, while Scott Landis has taken on the role of Chief People Officer. These promotions are set to strengthen Aptive's leadership team as it embarks on its next phase of expansion.
Anslinger’s background encompasses over two decades of experience in brand development and consumer engagement. Prior to this promotion, she was the Chief Marketing Officer at Aptive and has held high-level marketing roles in major companies such as Procter & Gamble and The Estée Lauder Companies. Her new role will see her enhance Aptive’s market presence and customer engagement strategies.
Scott Landis will continue to leverage his experience to drive Aptive's human resources strategy as Chief People Officer. Having previously served as the Chief Human Resources Officer, he has played a vital role in shaping Aptive’s people strategy, ensuring the company nurtures its talent effectively to support its aspirations and growth.

Tiffany K. Hagge, Chair of Aptive’s Board of Directors, expressed enthusiasm regarding the newly formed leadership team. She remarked, “Aptive is poised to further scale and bring data-infused experiences to our customers and we are thrilled to have Jon at the helm for this next chapter.” Her confidence in Chiazzese’s leadership abilities stands as a testament to the direction in which the company is headed.
Aptive Environmental has quickly ascended to become the fifth largest pest control provider in North America since its inception in 2015, serving customers across 36 states. The company is also actively involved in environmental stewardship, partnering with organizations like the EPA’s Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program and the United Nations Foundation.
As it embarks on this exciting new chapter, Aptive is dedicated to enhancing its service delivery, investing in its workforce, and maintaining its stellar brand reputation. The leadership by Chiazzese and his team is anticipated to cultivate outstanding experiences for customers, ensuring the company remains at the forefront of the pest control industry.
