Old Town, ME The board of directors of James W. Sewall Company (Sewall) have named Charles Nadeau to follow George Campbell, Jr. as the 140-year-old company’s newest president. Nadeau most recently served as the CFO and COO of the company. During this tenure, he and his team implemented a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to manage projects, accounting, and human resources seamlessly at the company.

His presidency is a natural evolution of this collaboration. He understands the legacy of this iconic Maine company and how to grow it and adapt it to changes in the world around us in our 140th year in business. I couldn’t be more pleased with his insight, character, temperament, and leadership qualities. Sewall couldn’t be in better hands.”
