and systems for highly variable data large volume printing and mailing.
Over the years he moved up the ranks and held positions of supervisor,
manager, and director of IT as his role expanded to managing the IT
department, software development, data processing for all print

been CISO and CIO, responsible for providing strategic direction for

manufacturing.

& Quin’s security controls to safeguard sensitive data. He has also
recently implemented a new information security program based ISO

to meet compliance requirements and business needs. As Vice President,
Haria will continue to focus on accreditations and processes that ensure

direct mail programs are managed by Johnson & Quin.

has been instrumental in keeping Johnson & Quin’s information and
security technologies, processes and procedures up-to-date to ensure all
internal and client data and information are kept confidential and
secure. As the use of data becomes more critical in marketing
communications, it is essential that our clients are confident in our
processes to accurately and securely process and store the data used for
their critical mail programs. Manish continues to stay on top of IT
technology trends, products and certifications to keep J&Q at the
forefront of security and processing. I am delighted to announce his
well-deserved promotion.”
