Goodwill Gulf Coast is proud to announce the promotion of Jenny Thomas to Vice President of Donated Goods Retail!
Jenny has been an integral part of our team, serving as Assistant Vice President of Donated Goods Retail under Barry Reed. With Barry stepping into his new role as President/CEO following Frank Harkins’ retirement, Jenny is stepping up to lead our Donated Goods Retail operations into the future.
Jenny Thomas began her career with Goodwill Gulf Coast in 2016 as an Assistant Manager and has steadily advanced through leadership roles, including Store Manager, Director of Store Development, and Assistant Vice President of Donated Goods. In 2023, she completed the Goodwill Industries Senior Leadership Program. She is passionate about Goodwill’s mission and takes pride in leading teams, developing people, and finding new ways to grow donated goods and retail operations. Outside of work, Jenny’s favorite place to be is with her husband and four wonderful kids. She’s also an avid reader and a big football fan, especially when it comes to the Alabama Crimson Tide.
Congratulations, Jenny!
