OpinionRoute Hires VP of Operations

US technology and sample services company OpinionRoute has appointed Yanawan Hurlbut as VP of Operations, leading its Client Services and Vendor Management programs.

OpinionRoute's proprietary Navigator workflow software helps survey researcher clients streamline operations and improve data quality - the firm also uses it for its own survey sampling and data collection services. Earlier this year the company acquired Fitchburg, MA-headquartered Jibunu, a designer and developer of bespoke market research tools and methodologies, and last month is announced an upgrade following the completion of Jibunu's integration.

Hurlbut brings more than twenty years of experience in Research Operations leadership, building and scaling focused on operational excellence, quality and client success. Most recently she worked ar Precision Sample (now TestSet) as SVP of Operations, and before that she led Global Operations for uSamp and Greenfield Online.

Hurlbut will be based in Connecticut and report directly to COO Kayla Cousineau. CEO Terence McCarron says of the hire: 'OpinionRoute's team shares a profound commitment to improve the online research ecosystem. Yan's addition is a great example of an experienced leader who immediately understood why we care so much about the Market Research Agency.'
