Leeco Steel, supplier of steel plate, has announced three key promotions across its sales and processing leadership teams. These changes are intended to optimize fulfillment procedures and accelerate growth in the company's high-potential Transmission and Distribution (T&D) and plate processing business segments.

Leeco Steel promoted Bob Bartley to National Processing Manager-Commercial; Jared Koslan to Regional Sales Manager-T&D; and Kent Daves to Sales Manager-T&D.

In his new role, Bartley will serve as a crucial liaison between sales, operations and administration, focusing on optimizing fulfillment procedures for orders involving processing. Bartley began his career as a sales representative based in Leeco's Pittsburgh-area sales office in 2011. Since then, he has advanced into various leadership roles, serving most recently as regional sales manager-processing.

Koslan will take a leading role in expanding the T&D segment, which also offers significant plate processing potential. Koslan joined Leeco in 2017 as a sales representative at Leeco's Fort Worth sales office and has since advanced into several leadership roles, serving most recently as sales manager-T&D.

Daves will provide dedicated project management, sales, and service to the region's expanding customer base and project management team. Daves began his career as a sales representative for Leeco's Houston sales office in 2014 and has since advanced to other sales positions before serving most recently as account manager for Leeco's South region.

"These appointments reflect Leeco Steel's commitment to placing dedicated leadership in critical areas of our business," said Jason Fredstrom, Executive Vice President. "We are poised to significantly expand our processing capabilities, and Bob, Jared and Kent's expertise will be essential in capturing the expected growth across our business."
