Open Lending has named board chairman Jessica Buss its next chief executive officer.
Buss has been on the board since 2020 and became chairman in 2023. She plans to continue as chairman, but will no longer be a member of the nominating, corporate governance and audit committees, the Austin, Texas, lending analytics provider said Monday.
Buss previously served as chief executive of Argo Group International Holdings, a subsidiary of Brookfield Reinsurance.
Open Lending also named Michelle Glasl as chief operating officer. Glasl was also at Argo, serving as head of operations starting in 2022.
The two succeed Charles Jehl, who had been simultaneously serving as interim chief executive, interim chief financial officer and chief operating officer.
Jehl, who has been serving as interim CFO since 2020, helped take the company public. He became interim CEO after Keith Jezek stepped down from the role in March 2024. Jehl plans to continue as interim CFO while the board searches for a permanent successor.
