Steve Webb has been promoted to executive vice president of The Gordon Company.
Boca Raton, Fla.—Financial service provider The Gordon Company has announced Steve Webb is its new executive vice president.

Webb has been promoted from his previous position as director of sales, according to LinkedIn.

He brings more than 30 years of retail jewelry store management to the new role, having worked with Jared/Sterling Corp, Zale Corporation, and Krementz Diana.

Webb has experience in all facets of retail management and operations, including store branding, human resources and sales training, and expansion initiatives, the company said.

He began his career in retail jewelry management and operations as a store manager with the Zale Corporation and later worked as a district jewelry supervisor for Service Merchandise, a regional manager for Zale Corporation, and a district manager for Jared the Galleria of Jewelry.

"Over the past four years, l've seen firsthand how The Gordon Company's individually crafted strategies help clients meet their sales goals with more success than they thought possible—whether resetting their businesses or closing their doors—and enjoyed being a part of it," said Webb.

"I'm looking forward to the challenges ahead, and the opportunity to draw on all of my cumulative knowledge of the industry."

Founder and CEO of The Gordon Company, Jeff Gordon said, "Steve's depth of knowledge of retail jewelry store operations, management, customer service and sales training provide the perfect complement to our team of experts in the field."

"He's already proven to be a great asset to our president Ira Bergman as a key interface with clients and their sales teams," he added.

The Gordon Company, a provider of managed liquidations of retail jewelry with over 120 years of family heritage in the field, crafts unique strategies to help independent jewelers reach their financial goals.
