Access industry veteran Brian Black is to join Skyjack as vice president of sales, he will join the company at the beginning of March from Teupen North America, where he was sales director for the Americas.
In the past he has worked for most of the major manufacturers in senior major accounts or international roles, including Snorkel where he started his access career, JLG, Genie, Caterpillar, Grove Manlift and prior to Teupen with Terex Construction.
Black is likely to focus initially on the markets where he has the strongest connections, including South America and the Middle East.
Another appointment informally announced at the recent Rental show in New Orleans was the appointment of Ian McGregor as product safety manager, a role that Brad Boehler handled until his recent confirmation as president. McGregor was previously a design and product safety engineer with Skyjack.
