RAPAPORT... The Jewelers Vigilance Committee (JVC) said its longstanding chief executive officer and president, Cecilia Gardner (pictured), will step down at the beginning of 2017.

Gardner’s exit will follow JVC’s planned celebration for completing 100 years. Discussions are ongoing with the executive committee over the scope of Gardner’s continued role at JVC, a company she has led since being promoted from general counsel in 2005, according to a statement April 4.

The executive committee is reviewing JVC’s overall staffing requirements as it looks to secure leadership and management for the future, the statement said.

“We are so appreciative of Cecilia’s contributions to the JVC during her 18-year tenure with the organization,” said Steve Kaiser, president of JVC’s board. “She has been a great advocate for the jewelry industry and we do hope to continue to work with her in the future.”

Gardner is also a former general counsel of the World Diamond Council.
