Joseph Benevides elected as ERC President

Joseph Benevides has been elected to serve as the 2008 President of the Employee Relocation Council (ERC), our industry organization. This is a particular honor because Joseph will be the first President in the history of ERC to come from a relocation management company. Joe was selected not only because of his experience but, perhaps even more importantly, because he is highly respected by those who know him in our industry. ERC officers are elected each year by the 20 members who serve on the ERC board of directors.

Benevides has more than 25 years of relocation industry experience having worked for Relocation Resources International (RRI), as its president, COO, CFO and senior vice president. Benevides also held other senior management positions in operations, client relations and sales for Weichert Relocation, Long & Foster and various other mortgage companies. His current responsibilities at Paragon include overseeing domestic and international relocation services, client accounting and consulting services.
