Christi Seidel has been named President and CEO of Surrey Services for Seniors.

Her appointment follows a six-month, nationwide search conducted by the Devon-based nonprofit that helps older adults live with independence and dignity and continue as engaged members of the community.

Seidel, a resident of the Tredyffrin-Easttown School District, has held a variety of positions at Surrey since joining the organization as a volunteer grocery shopper more than 20 years ago. In 2010, she joined the staff as Marketing Manager and, since then, has held roles in virtually every business area, including management of Surrey’s community centers, membership, volunteers, and consignment shop.

Most recently, Seidel served as Surrey’s Chief Operating Officer and was responsible for finance, human resources, and home-care services.

“Christi’s leadership has been evident at Surrey,” said Rick Davis, Chairman of Surrey’s Board of Directors. “Her accomplishments range from helping Surrey garner state and national awards for excellence to ensuring operations continued smoothly without interruption during the COVID crisis.”

Seidel possesses a BBA from Marymount University and an MBA from Saint Joseph’s University. She is actively involved in several community organizations and serves on an advisory board for the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.

“Surrey is truly a unique community made up of engaged older adults, supportive donors and partners, and committed volunteers working together to support Surrey’s mission and values,” said Seidel. “I am honored to lead Surrey as it enters its 40th year of serving older adults in our community.”
