Syneos Health Commercial Solutions has hired Phil Moser as the associate director of global driver safety where he seeks to create a more robust driver safety program for the company.

Moser’s current plans for the new safety initiative at Syneos (previously inVentiv Health Commercial Solutions) includes focuses on educating new drivers, high-risk drivers, and field managers, he said. These safety initiatives will be based on a series of safe driving habits.

“I want to point out the things drivers are doing wrong, give them the pointers on how to improve those, and reinforce the good things they are doing,” he said.

His move to Syneos comes after serving more than 25 years with Advanced Driver Training Services (ADTS), a provider of driver safety training services.

Moser's transition occured after having discussions with Syneos’ director of fleet services, Kristin Leary, about the idea of creating a more robust fleet safety program. This resulted in the creation of the position which Moser was hired into in July.

Before this, Moser served as the vice president of ADTS. Moser joined ADTS in 1991 as a part-time instructor, became sales manager in 1994, and was named national sales manager in 2000.

Moser is a frequent speaker at national conferences for groups such as NAFA and the Automotive Fleet Leasing Association (AFLA). In 2008, he received the NAFA Outstanding Chapter Service Award.

A graduate of the Pennsylvania State Police Academy, Moser was an accident investigation and reconstruction specialist with the Lower Providence Police Department in Eagleville, Pennsylvania for 11 years before joining ADTS.
