Stertil-Koni USA has appointed Scott Steinhardt as the new President of the company, Scott Steinhardt.
Having initially joined Stertil-Koni as Vice President of Sales in 2022 and later assuming the role of General Manager in 2023, Steinhardt brings over 28 years of experience in top-tier industry sales, marketing, and distributor management to his leadership position in North America.
Focused on Driving Sales and Technology Advancements
During his tenure of two years at Stertil-Koni, Steinhardt has expanded sales into untapped markets, advocated for the integration of advanced technologies.
He has also enhanced and accelerated customer support services to elevate overall service quality, contributed to advancements in product development, and collaborated closely with the exclusive distributor network and company personnel at Stertil-Koni to strengthen partnerships, boost sales, and enhance the company's branding.
Paving the Path for Industry Excellence
Steinhardt succeeds Dr. Jean DellAmore, Stertil-Koni’s first president, who served in that capacity since the company’s U.S. launch in 1987.
Over that span, which exceeds a quarter of a century, DellAmore catapulted Stertil-Koni into a position of industry leadership in the heavy duty vehicle lift sector.
DellAmore was recently appointed president of Nussbaum North America Ltd., an automotive vehicle lift company that is also part of the Stertil Organization.
Marcel Jansen, Marketing and Sales Director/Chief Commercial Officer for the Stertil Group, stated, “We are delighted to welcome Scott into his new and expanded role and are confident that with his leadership skills, dedicated focus and formidable determination, this development is a logical and thoughtful pathway to continue the success and growth of Stertil-Koni for the benefit of our distributors, our customers and our employees across North America.”
“Toward that end,” continued Jansen, “over the past two years, Scott has had the unique opportunity to work hand-in-hand with our very own vehicle-lift industry legend – Jean DellAmore. Together, these two executives have delivered outstanding results for Stertil-Koni on multiple fronts.” “In sum, Jansen concluded, “Jean has continued to be a key contributor to the success of Stertil-Koni over a remarkable timespan and we would are exceedingly grateful for his tremendous energy, performance, and insight. We also know that there is more ahead for Jean and are confident that he will be a dynamo in building our Nussbaum business in the U.S. and Canada.”
