Docupace, the back-office operations service provider, has appointed J.T. Petrilli as head of mergers & acquisitions. According to the company release, Petrilli will report to Docupace CEO David Knoch.
“[J.T.’s] proven track record of managing complex deals and successfully integrating acquired companies perfectly aligns with our vision to scale through strategic acquisitions,” Knoch said in a statement. “He brings both deep analytical rigor and a people-first mindset—an exceptional combination for our next phase of growth.”
Petrilli brings more than a decade of experience in financial strategy, corporate development, and post-merger integration, having led M&A efforts for some of the most respected names in the technology sector.
