Jim Teresi

Jim began working with LakePoint Energy in 2013.  Jim headed the relationship between the CPO and LakePoint Energy.

Jim has over 40 years of Purchasing/Management experience and has a keen sense of the budgetary constraints facing nonprofit organizations on a daily basis. This unique understanding and empathy drives him to be an especially tough negotiator to the benefit of the institutions that utilize CPO services.

Jim left the private sector to join CPO in 1986, was promoted to Asst. Director in 1994, and was officially named Executive Director in 1999. He has continued to work on behalf of all our parishes, schools, and agencies through numerous negotiations with local, regional, and national vendors as well as maintaining a hands-on approach with many of the services we offer.
