PMG Jack Potter has announced the selections of two new officers to senior USPS positions.

William Gilligan has been named Chief Postal Inspector. Since October, Gilligan has been Acting Chief Postal Inspector. Gilligan has realigned Inspection Service resources with the goal of improving protection of customers, employees and postal assets. “Under his leadership, greater focus has been placed on security, including cyber security, revenue fraud and fraud prevention,” Potter said.

Masse’s other activities will include revenue and expense budgeting, forecasting, financial analysis and program review, including capital and program evaluation.
