Scott Rolston has been appointed senior vice president, sales and marketing, across all territories, having previously served as president of Manitex. He will have responsibility for domestic and international sales and marketing of all products in the crane portfolio. This includes delivering planned growth initiatives in the North American dealer network, strengthening strategic alliances, enhancing in-house distribution and expanding Manitex’s international focus.

Phil Fridley has been promoted to the role of president having served as director of operations for a year. He will be directly responsible for financial performance, specifically in manufacturing operations, purchasing, manufacturing engineering, sales ordering and administration.
