\u201cFrom the very beginning, we saw the Manitex Inc investment as key to meeting Tadano\u2019s vision of becoming the leader in lifting equipment. Since last January, we\u2019ve dedicated much time and effort in enhancing our product, services and support infrastructure for customers,\u201d says Dean Barley, president and CEO of Tadano America Corporation, Manitex Inc and Tadano Mantis Corporation. \u201cWith this addition to the team we are now adding an increased focus on sales. Scott has a long, proven track record of sales success and team member development. His wealth of industry experience is necessary for leading our sales teams in support of our customers\u2019 lifting needs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walter adds nearly 30 years of sales and more than 20 years of management experience to the Manitex Inc team. With this addition, Tadano further strengthens the Manitex sales leadership team, bringing together Jeff Long, director of sales for boom trucks, bucket trucks and sign cranes, and Anthony Hampton, director of sales for knuckle boom cranes\u2014each contributing specialized expertise in their respective product areas to better support customers\u2019 needs, and both reporting to Scott Walter. Offering global experience, Walter has successfully negotiated contracts and managed business development. Most recently, he spent the last 16 years as VP of strategic accounts (OEM sector) for Ritchie Bros., charged with managing the company\u2019s team of strategic account managers within the OEM sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m honored to be joining a market-leading organization like Tadano, who has built a strong global reputation for leadership in the lifting industry and delivers innovative solutions and services for its customers,\u201d comments Walter. \u201cWorking with the Manitex Inc team, Tadano has leveraged its experience to simplify the business, equipment distributors and customers with innovative tools to ensure success, and strengthened customer support by creating a laser focus on each of the key product lines. I\u2019m excited to get to work and do my part to build on this success.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","news_topics":[50],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nScott Walter Named VP of Sales for Tadano America\u2019s Manitex Business Segment - US\/Canada<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/uscan\/en\/news\/scott-walter-named-vp-of-sales-for-tadano-americas-manitex-business-segment\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Scott Walter Named VP of Sales for Tadano America\u2019s Manitex Business Segment - US\/Canada\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Tadano, a global leader in lifting solutions, announces Scott Walter as the new vice president of sales for its Manitex Inc business.
