Parcel Pending Expands Leadership Team With a Trio of New Executives to Meet the Growing Demand for Digital Smart Lockers


IRVINE, CA--(Marketwired - Jun 8, 2016) - Parcel Pending, the digital smart locker company that leads the global package management industry with 100% Always-On Customer Service®, today announced the appointment of three industry-leading executives who bring a dynamic mix of experience and innovation to the company. Val Lyon has joined Parcel Pending as Chief Financial Officer, Stephanie Van De Motter has been elevated to the role of Vice President of Sales and Marketing, and Michael Williams has joined as the new Director of Sales.

As the global leader in package management, Parcel Pending eliminates the chaos of package management by assuming all of the customer service responsibilities for package delivery, notification and retrieval, ultimately making life easier (and saving precious time) for property managers and residents alike. With the growth of online shopping, demand for seamless package management solutions is rapidly increasing.

To meet this rising demand, Parcel Pending has appointed three of the most sought-after industry professionals to support the brand's expansion. The trio of new executive hires bring an impressive 50 years of combined experience to Parcel Pending:

  • Val Lyon, Chief Financial Officer -- Lyon has more than three decades of executive-level financial management experience, having served in senior roles with several prestigious companies. At Far West Savings and Loan, he was responsible for executive management of accounting, treasury, IT, major loan servicing, and retail systems for the $3.5 billion savings and loan association. Similarly, as CFO at Warmington Homes, Lyon managed accounting, corporate forecasting and planning, treasury, information services, human resources, and administration for the Builder 100 Company with sales of 800 units and revenues of $325 million. He also gained an understanding of the multifamily space serving as the CFO at LeasingDesk Insurance Services. At Parcel Pending, Lyon is responsible for all financial functions including accounting, strategic planning, forecasting and budgeting.
  • Stephanie Van De Motter, Vice President of Sales and Marketing -- Van De Motter joined Parcel Pending in 2015 as Director of Business Development and Partnerships and within six months was promoted to Vice President of Sales and Marketing after playing an instrumental role in helping Parcel Pending grow to become the global leader in package management. 

    Van De Motter has 25 years of sales and marketing experience and spent more than 15 years at the Irvine Company as Director of Leasing & Operations, where she worked alongside Parcel Pending CEO Lori Torres. During her tenure at The Irvine Company, Van De Motter's team was ranked #1 portfolio-wide in overall customer satisfaction for 10 years in a row, and consistently set the national standard for highest average market rent.
