FAIRFAX, Va. — Rob Lederer has resigned as executive vice president of the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), effective immediately.NPMA President Laura Simpson broke the news during an NPMA Board of Directors conference call this morning. To ease with the transition, Lederer will serve as a consultant to NPMA for the next six months.

“I treasure my NPMA experiences, particularly the many people I’ve had the opportunity to meet and what I’ve learned over the years. But, many of us who travel intense career paths reach a point where it is time to pursue new challenges, and, now, that time has come,”Lederer said in an NPMA press release. “With the quality and caliber of our leadership and staff team, I have full confidence that NPMA is poised to achieve even greater successes in the coming years.”
Simpson said Lederer “leaves behind an incredibly solid association made up of individual building blocks he stacked with precision and intent. From the strength of partnerships with our state associations to the creation of Quality Pro and the Professional Pest Management Alliance, from the fostering of new industry leaders at Academy and Leadership Development Group to our widely respected government affairs program, the industry owes Rob a resounding thanks for his far reaching efforts that will outlive his time with the association.”
Simpson added NPMA’s executive committee is working on a transition plan; members can be assured the association’s activities will continue to operate fully during the search for a new executive vice president.
“The great work of NPMA staff, our board and the existing programs established during Rob’s tenure as our leader will continue unvarnished while we undergo a comprehensive, national search for the right candidate,” Simpson said. “We don’t enter into this search lightly and won’t make decisions without careful, consideration for the day-to-day operations and long-term strategic goals of the organization.”
