Amy Jensen

Executive Director

The Chanute Area Chamber of Commerce & Office of Tourism is pleased to announce the selection of Amy Jensen as the new executive director. She will replace Jane Brophy, who is retiring after 16 years of service.

Jensen joins the Chamber after more than 25 years with The Chanute Tribune where she managed the circulation department and was often the person who assisted walk-in customers.

“The Chamber is thrilled to have someone of Amy’s caliber to oversee the day-to-day management of the organization,” Jon Burchett, who led the search committee, said.

Her duties will include membership outreach and relationships, event organization, financial administration and other activities. In addition, she will be the point person for the fulfillment of the contract obligations with the City for tourism endeavors. Her customer service experience will be of great value in fulfilling all her responsibilities.

“I’m excited for this career change and look forward to working with Chamber members, the City and the community,” Jensen said.

Brophy has been with the Chamber since 2007 and will assist with the transition and the remainder of the 150th celebration commitments.

“On behalf of the Chamber board of directors, we would like to welcome Amy and believe she will be an outstanding asset to our organization,” Denise Hastings, Chamber board president, said.
