Since July 1， 2008， Jane Mendillo becomes the new president and chief executive officer of Harvard Management Company （HMC）.

Regarded as one of the nation’s premier endowment managers， Mendillo has served since February 2002 as the chief investment officer of Wellesley College. There she has built the college’s first investment office， directed the restructuring of its investment portfolio， and achieved substantial and sustained endowment growth through a period of rapidly changing market conditions.

Previously， Mendillo served as one of Harvard Management Company’s senior investment officers， rising to become HMC’s vice president of external investments and overseeing the investment of a portfolio that grew to $7 billion — roughly a third of HMC’s assets then under management.

In nearly 15 years at Harvard Management Company， from 1987 until early 2002， Mendillo held a series of senior positions， ultimately as vice president of external management. In that role， to which she was appointed in 1997， she was responsible for directing the investment of a portfolio that grew to $7 billion in assets， including $6 billion in externally managed endowment assets （including investments in private equity， real estate， emerging markets， and natural resources， among other areas） and $1 billion in pension and related accounts. Previously， as vice president for trusts （1992-96）， vice president for private equity （1989-91）， and a member of the internal equities management team （1987-89）， she held key investment responsibilities in the areas of domestic equities， venture capital， and charitable trusts.

In addition to directing Wellesley’s investments， Mendillo currently chairs the board of The Investment Fund for Foundations （TIFF） Advisory Services， which manages endowment assets of approximately $8 billion for a nationwide network of more than 300 not-for-profit organizations. In this role， she is closely involved with TIFF’s senior management in setting its investment and organizational
