Western Global, a supplier of portable tanks and dispensing equipment for fuels, lubricants and other fluids, named Michael O’Brien and Sydney Talbot as its new Southeast U.S. regional sales team.
O’Brien, who has served as regional sales manager, and Talbot, a sales support representative, will cover nine Southeastern states, including Florida, North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas and more. O’Brien and Talbot will be responsible for growing sales and educating customers throughout the region, the company says.
“Western Global remains committed to providing customers with knowledge and products to more efficiently and profitably run their businesses,” says Ken Steury, director of sales for the Americas region at Western Global. “Michael fits our mission. He understands how to develop lasting solutions for clients and will work with Sydney to share that product knowledge with the market and build long-lasting and mutually beneficial relationships.”
An industry vet of 21 years, O’Brien has served the last three as regional manager at Western Global while Talbot joined the company in December.
“We are excited to start working with our customers in the new territory,” O’Brien says. “We saw great success in Texas, and now, with the addition of our new sales rep, Sydney, we’re ready to start growing the Southeast.”
