He was the last secretary of the Wisconsin Department of Commerce and the first C.E.O. of its successor, the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, during the administration of Governor Scott Walker. He previously served as the 46th mayor of Green Bay, Wisconsin, from 1995 to 2003, and the C.E.O. of the Green Bay Area Chamber of Commerce.
Jadin won his first general election with 55% of the vote and was the first mayor of Green Bay in over fifty years to run for re-election unopposed.[1]
Prior to his election, Jadin had been the city's personnel director. After leaving office, he became president of the Green Bay Area Chamber of Commerce.[2] He resigned the position on December 28, 2010. Shortly thereafter, he was appointed as the Secretary of the Wisconsin Department of Commerce in Governor Scott Walker's cabinet.[3]
In September 2012, CEO/Secretary Paul Jadin resigned from his position in the former Wisconsin Department of Commerce, which had become the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, to take a position with Thrive, which serves an eight-county region around Madison, Wisconsin.[4]
