After becoming ASGN’s CEO in 2019, Hanson moved the Fortune 1000 IT and professional staffing services firm’s headquarters from California to Henrico County in 2020. Hanson previously worked for Apex Systems, one of ASGN’s subsidiaries, serving as its chief financial officer for 15 years. After ASGN purchased Apex in 2012, Hanson became executive vice president of the parent company, then president in 2016.
In fiscal 2024, ASGN earned $4.1 billion in revenue, down from $4.45 billion the previous year. In March, a joint venture between ASGN’s federal government segment, ECS, and Herndon-based IT firm Yakshna Solutions, announced it had won a spot on a $20 billion U.S. Department of Treasury blanket purchase agreement for cybersecurity enhancements. In March, ASGN acquired Chicago-based TopBloc, a Workday services provider, for $340 million.
A graduate of Virginia Tech and Virginia Commonwealth University, Hanson co-founded and serves as an emeritus board member of Virginia Tech’s Apex Center for Entrepreneurs. Hanson was inducted into the Junior Achievement of Central Virginia’s Greater Richmond Business Hall of Fame in 2023.
