Heller was retained to recruit a Chief Information Officer for PowerGrid Services, an Apollo portfolio company. With over 30 years of industry experience, PowerGrid serves a wide range of utility providers—including major utilities, cooperatives, and municipalities—across the country. They specialize in overhead distribution construction, transmission line maintenance, and right-of-way clearing and vegetation management. For this role, we identified Brad Manning, who most recently served as Chief Information Officer for Strada Services. Prior to that, he was Chief Information Officer at TopBuild. Manning holds a B.S. from Purdue University and an MBA from Ball State University.
