Carroll Track and Soccer Stadium, the Center for Young Children, Event Services, and Print and Mail Services.
“Layne’s leadership positions and her vast experience with negotiations, relationship building and operations will continue the momentum of growth and innovation that Auxiliary Services has seen in recent years,” Rhodes said.
Before her current position, Maloney served as the assistant to the president for facilities management and corporate projects at MacAllister Machinery, where she had senior-level responsibility for facilities, corporate planning and auxiliary services for the $1 billion Caterpillar dealership.
Maloney received her Bachelor of Business Administration degree in management with highest honors from Marian University. She is in the process of becoming a certified facility manager, the premier certification for experienced facility manager professionals, through the International Facility Management Association.
