J.P. Nauseef is a U.S. Air Force veteran, entrepreneur, and the president and chief executive officer of JobsOhio, a uniquely structured, private, economic development corporation that gives Ohio a competitive advantage in driving job creation and new capital investment in the State. He leads a team of nine targeted industry sector veterans, plus military and economic development specialists responsible for business and government installation retention, attraction, and expansion efforts statewide.
Since joining JobsOhio in March of 2019, J.P. has led initiatives that: increased average annual impact investments more than 65% to over $530M; closed more than 1,069 project deals (a 29% increase from the prior three years); secured more than 76K high-paying Ohio jobs (a +9% increase over the same period); and earned world-class ratings for corporate customer service satisfaction (an 85 Net Promoter Score). In addition, he worked with The DeWine/Husted Administration and his JobsOhio Board to launch 12 major initiatives to foster innovation, prepare project-ready sites, develop and retain Ohio’s world-class workforce, and promote inclusive development that make the State more competitive nationally. Under his leadership, JobsOhio moved from worst to first in convincing Intel to build its $20B - $100B next-generation semiconductor factories in Ohio, potentially the largest economic development project undertaken by a single American company in U.S. history. His current sights are set on the semiconductor supply chain, life sciences, technology, industry 4.0, and much, much more.
