LKCS fills vacancy through internal promotion. Karl Ribas is named new Director of Web Services and will oversee the development and growth of web department.

LKCS recently announced their decision to promote Karl Ribas to Director of Web Services. Ribas will assume his new role starting immediately, and will manage the company’s online design and marketing initiatives.

LKCS is located in Peru Illinois and is the area’s leading provider of end-to-end marketing, design, print, mail, and web related services. The company first began in 1961 offering commercial printing solutions to financial institutions. It has since grown to provide an array of design and marketing services, and is best known for leveraging the latest technologies and techniques to improve marketing results for their clients.

The position Director of Web Services was previously occupied by LKCS veteran Lee Wilkins. Last month, Wilkins resigned from his role as director and has since left the company to pursue another opportunity in financial marketing. He had been with LKCS for 14 years, and served as a Director for 10-years.

Ribas joined LKCS in April of this year. He was hired on as Marketing Coordinator and assumed the responsibility of introducing new online marketing strategies for the company and their clients. Ribas brought with him 10-years of online marketing experience. His background is in search engine optimization, online advertising, and social media marketing.

“I am very excited for this opportunity”, says Ribas. “We have an extremely talented team here at LKCS, and I’m confident in our abilities to provide quality web development and electronic marketing solutions for our clients. This promises to be a great experience for me personally and professionally.”

In addition to his new management and leadership responsibilities, Ribas is tasked with setting the direction for the web department. He is to pay particular attention to emerging trends in web design, electronic marketing, and Internet related technologies, and identify and implement new service opportunities.

“We are pleased to have been able to promote Karl, and have him take over as Director of Web Services upon Lee’s departure”, says Mike Dudek, President. “Karl brings a lot of online marketing experience to this position and we feel very confident that he will do a great job!”
