Al Bove has been appointed chief executive officer of Maxim Crane Works, the USA’s largest crane rental company. Arthur Innamorato Jr. has been appointed president.

Bove was previously executive vice president of operations. Innamorato was executive vice president of business development. Together they replace former president/CEO Jeff Fenton who has left the company ‘to pursue other interests’. Fenton joined Maxim – and the crane industry – from GE Capital in October 1999 ‘Jeff has made strong contributions to Maxim Crane over the last three years, and we wish him the very best in his new endeavours,’ said Bove.

Bove’s role is to oversee the company’s senior regional managers, and take charge of customer service, safety and operations. Innamorato will be responsible for corporate administration.
