Jack Robb named chief legal officer; Chris Cosby is COO
Robyn Sidersky// January 8, 2024//
Glen Allen-based Old Dominion Electric Cooperative has named Jack Robb as its chief legal officer and senior vice president, and Chris Cosby as chief operations officer, the not-for-profit cooperative announced Monday.
Robb joined ODEC as deputy chief legal officer last year, but before that, spent a decade serving as outside counsel while working for Miles & Stockbridge and LeClairRyan. He started his new role Jan. 1. Cosby had been serving as interim COO and senior vice president of power supply since former COO Rick Beam retired two years ago and became permanent COO on Dec. 12, 2023.
Robb replaces Michael Hern, who stepped down as chief legal officer at the end of 2023 but still works with ODEC as a consultant.
“Jack is a tremendous asset to ODEC and will make an outstanding chief legal officer,” John C. Lee Jr., interim president and CEO of ODEC, said in a statement. “He has a deep understanding of the laws and regulations governing ODEC and has a strong appreciation for the need to provide reliable, affordable power to ODEC’s members and their 1.5 million member-consumers.”
