EPSG Appoints Brent Rose as CEO

MELVILLE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EPSG announced the appointment of 30-year payments veteran Brent Rose as CEO of the company. Rose joins with a highly-accomplished history in creating efficiencies in multiple verticals and industries—leading companies to success through innovative strategies, effective leadership, and a deep understanding of market trends despite economic challenges.

In fact, his reputation for navigating the ever-changing payments market and developing technology strategies drew 25-year friends and Co-Founders Richard Ross and Brett Sturm, to Rose. Ross and Sturm will step into the roles of Co-Chairman, and Rose will join the board and assume direction and management of all day-to-day operations.

“We are so proud of where we’ve come, but we always knew we would need someone who’s worked in every aspect of the payments business, a true visionary, and someone who is well-respected. That is Brent Rose,” said Sturm. “As we continue to protect our partners and their portfolios, Rose is the right person to help us deliver the right products, integrations, and, frankly, offer things we’ve never thought about to and for our partners.”

Rose acknowledges technology is the backbone of EPSG and the forward-looking vision to best serve partners and merchants. Just two years ago, EPSG opened a state-of-the-art Network Operations Center (NOC), underscoring the company's commitment to service and supporting extremely low attrition rates. “The technology infrastructure provides a first-in-class platform that we will expand on in the coming months and years,” said Rose.

“I am incredibly excited to assume this role and what the future holds for EPSG. We have a very talented team in place, in all aspects of the company,” said Rose.

The future of EPSG is bright and taking on new life with the addition of Rose.

“He’s the perfect CEO,” Ross said of Rose. “Brent will continue to build on a well-established company and with his industry experience, leadership, and guidance, we fully expect to achieve even higher levels of success in the future.”
