With more than 35 years of experience in trucking and logistics, Putnam will shepherd the company’s growth acceleration through new customer acquisition and expansion.

Openforce is experiencing unprecedented growth empowering ICs and facilitating their clients’ success in the gig economy, transportation, healthcare, and other industries that use IC workforces.

“I’m incredibly excited to join Openforce and to help lead this pioneering company into its next growth phase,” said Ms. Putnam. “The way we live and work has fundamentally shifted over the past few years and I’ve been impressed with how Openforce has responded, giving their clients and their independent contractors the technology tools they need to adapt, scale, and grow. I look forward to leveraging my experience in the trucking industry to drive demand for Openforce’s technology within that space, while also zeroing in on the opportunities the burgeoning gig economy presents.”
Ms. Putnam was most recently Chief Executive Officer at Delivery Circle, LLC, a technology-enabled final-mile delivery provider. She previously served as VP of Marketing Strategy at Ryder System, Inc., Chief Commercial Officer at Verst Logistics, and spent more than 25 years in various roles at YRC Worldwide, where she focused on revenue growth, developing sales strategy, planning, and execution.
