DULUTH, MN — Moline Machinery has introduced changes to its ownership structure and senior management.
After a long-planned transition, Gary Moline will shift from owner and president to executive chair of the company. These management changes will mainly transfer ownership to his three children, David Moline, Daniel Moline and Lisa Filzen.
“This is a very qualified, skilled and capable group ready to lead a complex manufacturing business,” Gary said. “I have been doing this since the 1970s and am very proud of what we have built here and the growth of our business into international markets during my career. Moving it to a fourth generation of independent, family ownership is a rare event and source of great pride for our family and team members.”
David will step into the role of president of the company. He previously served as VP of sales and marketing and has been with the business since 2007.
Moving from VP of manufacturing, Daniel will take on the role of COO. He has been with the family business since 2008.
Filzen, who has worked at Moline since 2013, will take on the role of CPA inactive controller.
Other leadership changes include Kevin Noreen’s promotion to CPA inactive chief financial officer/ VP of human resources and Eric Van Hees’ move to senior VP of systems engineering.
