Name: Dymah Paige
New position: CFO of Filco Carting
Previous position: Lead finance officer for global finance at Citi
New Jersey-based Filco Carting recently hired a new CFO, following the company’s award of multiple commercial waste zone contracts in New York City and expansion into the Garden State.
"I'm thrilled to join the Filco team and dive into the road ahead, including strategically driving Filco’s growth, stakeholder transparency and overall financial management,” Paige said in a statement. “I’m inspired to navigate this new and complex financial landscape, while continuing to build upon Filco's commitment to sustainability and innovation.”
Paige has nearly two decades of experience in financial roles across a variety of industries, including a focus on “strategic planning, FP&A, capital management, and corporate governance.” She has worked for a range of companies, including ConocoPhillips, JPMorgan Chase, Macquarie Infrastructure and Real Assets and Tunnel Hill Partners.
Tunnel Hill, once the largest waste-by-rail company in the industry, was acquired by a division of Macquarie 2019. Paige worked at the company as CFO following that transaction, leading up to its combination with Wheelabrator to create WIN Waste Innovations in 2021.
Filco said Paige’s role is meant to help “support COO Adam Pasquale’s sustainability mission while expanding the company's footprint” as it plans for “continued growth in the tri-state area.”
"Since joining the Filco team in fall 2022, I've been both amazed and energized by our company’s growth, expansion, and innovation," said Pasquale in a statement. "Dymah's appointment as CFO marks the next milestone in our growth journey, and we're grateful to have such remarkable financial acumen and talent steering Filco's finances."
New York City’s Department of Sanitation awarded Filco three commercial waste zone contracts, plus one citywide containerized zone contract, earlier this year. The non-exclusive system will begin in one zone this fall, which includes Filco, before scaling up to the rest of the city at an unspecified date.
The company also recently expanded into New Jersey, with municipal contracts in the small borough of Cresskill and the larger city of Paterson. Filco started servicing Paterson under an emergency contract in January, as the city worked through litigation with its prior hauler.
Earlier this month, a state judge denied an appeal by that hauler and cleared the way for Filco to ink a five-year deal with Paterson that could be worth up to $25 million.
