Roanoke is pleased to announce that effective September 1st, Megan Harrington was promoted to the position of Bond Manager for the Midwest, Baltimore and New England areas. Megan takes over for Maya Mackey who after many years of successfully running the department, is transitioning into a sales role for Roanoke.

Megan started with Roanoke seven years ago in the Bond Department and quickly demonstrated that she was a go-to person and could be depended on to handle whatever came her way competently and with a smile on her face.  In 2016 she was asked to move to the Marine Department where she excelled and assumed considerable responsibility in a very short time frame. After her two year stint in Marine, Megan moved back to the Bond Department at the beginning of this year and has quickly re-established herself as an integral part of that team.

With time spent in both our bond and marine units, Megan has an expertise in both our customs bond and cargo insurance products that will allow her to provide a high level of service to our clients. We have all the confidence that Megan is going to do a great job as the new leader of our bond unit, so please join me in congratulating Megan on a well-deserved promotion to Bond Manager of Schaumburg!
