After an extensive nationwide search, the Greenville Eastern North Carolina (ENC) Alliance is excited to welcome Pamela Fisher, CEcD, a nationally recognized economic development executive, as its next vice president of business recruitment. Fisher brings more than 20 years of experience in high-profile business attraction and expansion, government affairs, program management, and site selection efforts.
“I am excited to join the Greenville ENC Alliance and work alongside such a talented group of colleagues, guided by a visionary leader,” said Fisher. “From the outset, it was clear this is a professional, results-driven team committed to advancing Greenville’s economic future.”
Most recently, Fisher launched a consulting firm based in Indianapolis, specializing in economic development strategy, government affairs, and project management. She also spent 17 years at the state level, working as the director of economic development and special initiatives for the Indiana Department of Transportation and the director of intragovernmental and regulatory affairs for the Indiana Economic Development Corporation. She has a strong track record of guiding more than $7 billion in competitive capital investment projects by negotiating incentives and providing regulatory oversight, site readiness strategy, and permitting and infrastructure coordination.
“We are excited to welcome Pamela to the Greenville-Pitt County community. She brings an impressive two decades of state-level experience to the business recruitment role,” said Josh Lewis, president and CEO of the Greenville ENC Alliance. “With dozens of well-qualified applicants from across the country, we feel that Pamela is the right leader to strengthen our relationships with site selection consultants, business leaders, and community partners.”
In her role at the Alliance, Fisher will oversee Greenville-Pitt County’s industry recruitment and business development activities, as well as lead project management efforts.
“Greenville’s exceptional quality of life, in such a beautiful setting, is strengthened by an ecosystem of business and community leaders who are responsive and forward-thinking,” added Fisher. “I look forward to helping attract and grow businesses that will thrive here for decades to come.”
