The DavidHenry Agency is pleased to welcome Jim Furgeson, Vice President of Business Development and Corporate Strategy, to the team. Jim, a marketing and business development veteran with more than 20 years of experience, will be spearheading new business development at The DavidHenry Agency (DHA).
Most recently Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at Atlantic Health System, Jim adds another layer of hands-on, healthcare marketing expertise to the team, enabling DHA to expand its partnerships with hospitals, health systems, large physician groups and specialty practices to assist in achieving their marketing and media objectives.
“I partnered with The DavidHenry Agency when I worked in corporate healthcare marketing at Newton Medical Center. I was immediately impressed with the way the firm worked. David Fink and his team became a true extension of my team and helped me realize my vision for marketing our hospital and ancillary services. I am looking forward to bringing my extensive media background and experiences in corporate marketing to the table; these will be an asset as I work with healthcare executives to generate demand for their organizations and create real connections with consumers and providers in their communities.”
Prior to joining Atlantic Health System, Jim was the Director of Marketing and Promotions with Clear Channel Radio. Jim was closely involved in the launch of New York City’s radio station WKTU and during his time there was a recipient of the Billboard Monitor Award as Marketing Director of the Year.
Currently on the Board of Trustees for the United Way of Northern Jersey and Pass It Along, Jim also served on the Board of Directors for Sussex County Economic Development Partnership, Inc. “I believe that being involved and contributing to the community in which I work and live is essential. Through my relationship with Untied Way of Northern New Jersey and Pass it Along, I have met amazing people who are doing selfless work to help our neighbors who need support. It continues to be my privilege to serve with these inspiring organizations and individuals. As a father of three, I want to share my passion for giving back with my kids.”
With Jim Furgeson leading the new business efforts for the agency, Shelley Schoenfeld, marking two years with DHA as the Vice President of Business Development and Corporate Strategy, is shifting her focus to Account Services. In her former role, Shelley successfully partnered with Doylestown Hospital, the NFL Alumni, Aria Health, Daughters of Israel, New Jersey Lawyers Service, and others. Shelley brings more than 15 years of marketing and communications experience to DHA, and in her new capacity is responsible for the strategic development, design, implementation, and measurement of agency deliverables for its partners.
