Pierce Pepin Cooperative Services (PPCS) announces Becky Bradburn as its next Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial Officer. Bradburn is an industry veteran with a wealth of knowledge and experience working in the electric cooperative industry.  Bradburn joined PPCS after recently working at Bandera Electric Cooperative just outside San Antonio, Texas, where she held a similar role. Before Bandera, Bradburn was General Manager at Franklin Rural Electric Cooperative from 2016 to 2020 in Hampton, Iowa, and Executive Vice President and General Manager at Prairie Energy Cooperative in Clarion, Iowa, from 2014 to 2017. 

“We are excited to have someone of Becky’s caliber join PPCS,” said PPCS President and CEO Nate Boettcher. Boettcher added, “Becky has a solid understanding of cooperative accounting, financial management, and strategy. They also invested in broadband at her previous co-op, which will greatly benefit PPCS and our membership.” Retired Riverland Electric Cooperative CEO Jerry Sorenson has been the interim CFO for the past five months.  Bradburn’s first day with the co-op was Monday, April 22.
