Before joining Andrus, Murphy directed operations and management teams at organizations including Lincoln Educational Services, Jewish Theological Seminary of America and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
“Bryan has demonstrated the vision, leadership and skills necessary to guide and grow this 87-year-old agency,” John McLaughlin, chairman of the Andrus board of directors, said in a statement.
Murphy also has spent 20 years in fire department service as a chief and chaplain.
Andrus was founded in 1928 and has 14 locations, including a 107-acre location in north Yonkers, where the agency offers programs, treatment and mental health services for children in Westchester County.
