Doppelt, who has been affiliated with the 15-year-old company since 1985, has decided to pursue personal interests at this time. "It is with great reluctance that we say good-bye to Jill, who has been instrumental in helping us to achieve the rapid growth and success of Bertucci's," says Crugnale. "She has also been my right hand in developing our company's unique concept and an integral part of the Bertucci's family. It will be difficult to replace her talent, commitment and expertise. We wish her well in this new phase of her life." The marketing post is expected to be filled early this summer. Doppelt was recruited by Crugnale from the first Bertucci's in Somerville, Mass., where she had been working as a part-time waitress for only six months. He gave her the opportunity to join his fledging management team, which was about to open its third restaurant, and gained her loyalty by requiring that she make a small financial investment in the new venture. Bertucci's went public in 1991, and is traded on NASDAQ under the symbol BERT. Bertucci's, which currently operates 77 casual, full-service Italian restaurants in 12 states, continues to expand, including new markets in Atlanta and Chicago. Four more restaurants are scheduled to open in 1996.
