David Berteau, assistant secretary for logistics and materiel readiness at the Defense Department, has been appointed CEO of the Professional Services Council.
His appointment is effective March 28 and comes six months after former CEO Stan Soloway resigned after 15 years of leadership at the trade organization that represents the government services industry, PSC said Tuesday.
Bearteau rejoined DoD in late 2014 after he served as a senior vice president at the Center for Strategic and International Studies for six years.

He also spent eight years at Science Applications International Corp. (NYSE: SAIC) and his career there includes time as a senior vice president.
Prior to SAIC, he worked on acquisition, logistics, personnel and budget management initiatives at DoD between 1981 and 1993.
