On May 19, Janes<\/a> announced the appointment of Randy Nixon as U.S. president, effective immediately. Nixon has been serving as interim\u00a0U.S. president since February 2026.<\/p>\n

This appointment follows a transition period during which Nixon led the U.S. business in a dual capacity alongside his role as chief customer officer. During this time, the company has seen continued progress across sales, partnerships, and regional priorities.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince stepping in as the interim leader, Randy has driven meaningful progress across the business while maintaining a clear focus on our customers and mission,\u201d said Blake Bartlett, Janes chief executive officer. \u201cHis deep expertise and leadership experience position him well to continue advancing our U.S. operations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nixon joined Janes as chief customer officer in September 2025, after a distinguished career in the U.S. intelligence community, including serving as director of the CIA\u2019s Open-Source Enterprise.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited to step into this role on a permanent basis,\u201d said Nixon. \u201cHaving spent my career in service to the nation and relying on Janes to support my mission, I\u2019m committed to advancing our foundational military intelligence and continuing to equip our customers with the clarity and confidence they need when it matters most.\u201d<\/p>\n
