Stephen Chipman, former CEO of Grant Thornton, has been appointed CEO of Boston-based global expansion services provider Radius.
Radius said Thursday Chipman will succeed Chris Stone, who will continue to serve as a member of the company’s board of directors.
Stone said Chipman is expected to help Radius advance its growth plans through expansion of services, strategic acquisitions and implementation of the company’ services model.
Chipman served for more than three decades at Grant Thornton, where he held senior leadership roles in North America, Europe and Asia.
He also served as CEO and senior vice chairman of Grant Thornton China Management Corp., and led the company’s U.S. business through services expansion and acquisitions.
Chipman sits on the board of directors of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs and the governing board of the Center for Audit Quality and currently serves as a trustee of the U.S. Council for International Business.
Radius works to provide finance, human resource, accounting, banking, compliance and legal support to commercial firms through consulting and managed services.
