Vice President of Finance Jo Biggers has left MISO after 16 years, the RTO announced last week.

MISO said Biggers exited her position “to pursue other opportunities” and that it is beginning a search for a replacement. Biggers was responsible for procurement, facilities, accounting and FERC financial reporting. She joined MISO in August 2000, remaining in the same position throughout her tenure.

Until a replacement is found, MISO has delegated corporate service tasks to Senior Vice President of Compliance Services Steve Kozey. Finance and corporate planning responsibilities will be handled by Vice President of Strategy and Business Development Wayne Schug.

MISO declined to comment further on the departure. Beyond its short announcement, spokesman Jay Hermacinski said the RTO did not “have anything else to add.” Biggers could not be reached for comment.
