Mr. Butcher moves into the CEO and president position as Ms. Mudge comes to the end of her seven-year term in the role. Chemonics' governance structure limits CEO and presidency terms to seven years. Chemonics has a tradition of remaining engaged with those who have served as the company's president and CEO, and Ms. Mudge will continue to chair Chemonics' board. She is the first woman to serve in this role.

As Chemonics' fifth president and CEO, Mr. Butcher plans to continue to expand opportunities for staff, ensure an interconnected global workforce, and bring innovation to the forefront of global development. 

"I'm honored and excited to become Chemonics' fifth president and CEO. I strongly believe in our talented and dedicated professionals around the world and am humbled to have the opportunity to lead the company forward. Drawing on our values of caring, opportunity, excellence, innovation, and integrity, I look forward to working with Chemonics' Board, leadership team, and all of our global teams to continue to make a positive difference and serve others around the world together."  

Mr. Butcher holds an M.A. from American University in international political economy and his B.A. in political science from Colorado State University.
