CURE International Welcomes Jeff Broene as Chief Financial Officer
GRAND RAPIDS, MI – August 17, 2026: CURE International announced today the appointment of Jeff Broene as its new Chief Financial Officer. Equipped with over two decades of experience in finance, accounting, and executive leadership, Broene will oversee financial operations, accountability reporting, risk management, and resource stewardship across the CURE International network of pediatric surgical hospitals and programs.
Broene most recently served as Chief Financial Officer for a group of three affiliated manufacturing and distribution companies—Novo Building Products, Mid-Am Building Supply, and Woolf Distributing—totaling 1,500 employees across 20 facilities in the United States. In his previous role, Broene was responsible for the annual budget process and oversaw accounting, finance, tax, legal, IT, payroll, business intelligence, and strategic pricing.
“Jeff is an experienced financial leader whose steady judgment, operational discipline, and commitment to faithful stewardship will be a tremendous asset to CURE,” said Justin Narducci, President and CEO of CURE International. “As we continue to expand our impact for children with treatable disabilities, his leadership will help ensure CURE remains financially healthy, operationally effective, and well-positioned to serve more children and families around the world.”
Throughout his career, Broene has led complex financial operations, organizational integrations, and strategic transformation initiatives. At Novo, he helped lead the company through a sale process, including due diligence, post-transaction onboarding, and purchase accounting review. He also led efforts to streamline legal entity structures, integrate accounting and IT functions, and manage relationships with external audit, tax, insurance, benefits, and legal partners.
Broene previously spent eight years with PricewaterhouseCoopers, where he audited companies across a range of industries, including insurance, manufacturing and distribution.
“I am honored to join CURE International and support a mission that brings hope and healing to children and families around the world,” said Broene. “CURE’s commitment to excellent surgical care, compassionate service, and gospel-centered ministry is deeply meaningful. I look forward to partnering with leaders across the organization to strengthen CURE’s financial stewardship and advance this life-changing work.”
Broene holds a master of science in accountancy and a bachelor of business administration in accounting from Western Michigan University. He has served as treasurer and deacon at Fourth Reformed Church and is on the board of directors of All Belong, a nonprofit supporting inclusive education for students with disabilities at Christ-centered schools.
