Job Zone Network announced today that Kelly Perdew has joined their Board of Directors. Job Zone Network, a suite of niche career centers, recently launched Military Job Zone. Military Job Zone is run by former military members with years of experience in the military recruitment and placement industry, and is an online career center that links transitioning military members with employers.

Kelly Perdew is an experienced entrepreneur and a proven winner, having led major negotiations and implemented successful operational strategies at a range of companies, with a record of motivating groups to achieve aggressive goals.

ìI am excited to be part of the Job Zone Network team.î Kelly says, ìMy experience building online communities and growing start-up ventures will fit in well with the objectives of Job Zone Network. It is an added pleasure that the founders of Job Zone Network are all former military officers like myself. Our plan is to grow Job Zone Network to become the leader in the niche job board sector and to offer an alternative to the big boards that lack the industry focus our niche career centers provide.î

Kelly is a managing director of Angel-Led Venture Partners, where he and his two partners are raising money to co-invest with the leading angel groups across the country in early-stage ventures. In addition, Kelly is a published author, TAKE COMMAND: 10 Leadership Principles I Learned in the Military and Put to Work for Donald Trump, accomplished businessman, and frequently speaks to corporations and other organizations on many topics including leadership, entrepreneurship and the military in business.

Brian Davis, President of Job Zone Network, said, ìKelly Perdew will be a great asset to our team. He has a track record of success in business and he matches our culture to a tee. Kellyís work ethic, desire to constantly raise the bar, entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to community are all traits highly valued among the Job Zone Network team.î
