Sirois Tool Promotes Andre Nadeau to President of the Company

Owner Alan Ortner will remain with us in the role of CEO.

We’re happy to announce that our longtime employee Andre Nadeau has been promoted from Operations Manager to the position of President. Andre has been a member of our management team for 12 years, and as president, he’ll be responsible for overseeing day-to-day management of sales, customer service, engineering, and quality assurance. “Andre has been my right hand since 1994,” said Alan Ortner. “He understands every aspect of the business and has a great relationship with all our existing customers. He’s shown his commitment to being fair and honest with customers, vendors, and employees.”

As you know, Alan was recently elected Chairman of the NTMA (National Tooling and Machining Association), and in that role he will serve on their Executive Committee as well as the board of AMPED (Advanced Manufacturing Practice and Education Development) and the NTMF (National Tooling and Machining Foundation). Due to the time commitment and travel involved in this new position, he has chosen to hand off day-to-day operation of Sirois Tool to Andre and promote him to President. Alan will retain the title of CEO and will oversee long-term planning as well as financial and legal matters.

“Andre has earned this promotion, and the time is right to recognize him for his outstanding contributions to this company,” Alan continued. “This transition will be seamless, because he is already both knowledgeable about and committed to our high standards of customer service, quality, and responsiveness. This move is a win for everyone involved.”
