Todd Dooley joins CentralSquare from BDP International, a $2.5B revenue global logistics and transportation firm, where he served as CFO. Prior to BDP, Dooley held a leadership role at H&R Block, focusing on enterprise productivity, acquisition integration, workforce management, and other functions.

CentralSquare’s interim chief human resources officer, Todd Shaw, has since been appointed to assume the role. Under his leadership, Shaw led valuable improvements to CentralSquare’s recruitment, professional development, benefits and HR service functions.

Shaw started his consultancy, Shaw Organization Design LLC, to help companies build high performing teams and organizations. Prior to this, Todd was the CHRO at the global retail payments leader, Verifone. There he focused on the transformation of the business from a hardware provider to a services and solutions provider. Prior to Verifone, he served as an HR vice president at PayPal and as an HR executive at Bank of America. He worked in every major segment of the business, with his last assignment being the Regional HR executive for Asia Pacific. Earlier in his career Shaw worked at the Taco Bell division of PepsiCo and at NCR.
