Bay Park Conservancy adds first full-time CFO

In another step of growing an executive team, the Bay Park Conservancy recently named Steve Germaine as the nonprofit organization’s first full-time CFO. 

Germaine will report to Founding CEO AG Lafley until the new president and CEO Stephanie Crockatt joins in June 2023. The conservancy is responsible for planning, developing, operating and maintaining The Bay, a $200 million project on 53 acres on Sarasota Bay in downtown Sarasota.

“Steve is a seasoned accounting and financial manager with more than 20 years of experience as the financial head of a major for-profit business and with significant nonprofit experience,” Lafley says in a news release. “He is well qualified to lead, manage and deliver the breadth and depth of financial management, accounting and reporting that The Bay Park Conservancy will need as it continues to expand and grow.”
