NTEA Names 58th Board Chair

During Work Truck Week 2022, Tina Albright, vice president of HR & safety at Truck Bodies & Equipment International Inc. – TBEI (Lake Crystal, Minnesota), a subsidiary of Federal Signal Corporation (Oak Brook, Illinois), was installed as 58th Board chair of NTEA – The Association for the Work Truck Industry.

Albright accepted the position from immediate past Board chair Jon Sievert, vice president – business development, for Douglas Dynamics (Milwaukee, Wisconsin).

“I’m eager to begin this journey as NTEA Board chair and the first female to reside in the position,” Albright said. “Throughout the next year, I plan to continue strengthening awareness of the programs, tools and services the Association offers to help member companies maneuver and succeed in today’s ever-changing market.”

Albright’s industry career began more than 27 years ago in office administration at Rugby Manufacturing Company (now TBEI). Throughout her career, she has held a broad range of positions spanning the organization, including inside sales and marketing, production management, supply chain, human resources and safety.

Since being elected to NTEA’s Board in 2017, Albright has worked to further Association and industry progress. In addition to serving on the Executive Committee, in recent years, she’s been involved in the Chassis Liaison Committee, Education Committee, Workforce Development Task Force, Services Committee, and chaired the Board Development & Recruitment Committee and the Finance & Investment Committee.
