The Biddeford-Saco Chamber of Commerce announced Saturday that Alex MacPhail has been named as the agency’s executive director.
MacPhail, the husband of Saco Mayor Jodi MacPhail, is well known in the Biddeford–Saco region.
According to a press release, MacPhail brings “strong connections with local businesses, community partners, and municipal offices. His familiarity with the Chamber’s systems, communication platforms, and member network gives him a strong starting point as he steps into this role.”
MacPhail will be responsible for managing all day-to-day Chamber operations, including member services, communications, event planning and coordination and community outreach
“Because he already understands the organization and the community, Alex will be able to begin working immediately without a lengthy transition period,” reads the Chamber’s press release. “The Chamber looks forward to this new chapter and is confident in the steady leadership Alex will bring to the role.”
Last month, the Chamber fired former director Matt Lewis after only six months of employment.
DISCLOSURE: Gazette editor Randy Seaver and Saco Mayor MacPhail are step siblings.
