Martin Jones introduced as new business/industrial recruiter

The Columbia-Adair County Industrial Development Authority hosted a reception to welcome recruiter Martin Jones on Wednesday evening, June 15, at Pinewood Country Club.

He is the newly contracted business and industrial recruiter who will take the lead as Stacey Bailey leaves the position. Jones gives credit to Bailey for having done much of the groundwork that a recruiter has to do before beginning a campaign. Both agree that this is Adair County's time to shine with the governor's recent release of major project funds.


Jones, who has helped many area communities improve and build their economic bases over the past fifteen years, says, "I always begin by getting to know existing businesses and industries with a goal to help them grow stronger, before I start looking outside to recruit.

Industrial Development Authority leaders behind the hiring of Jones include: board Chair Barry Corbin, and members Barry Loy, Monica Rodgers, Jason Corbin, Mike Neal and Randy Nelson. According to Jones, these people have a very progressive attitude and they are all on the same page in wanting to bring good jobs here.
