AM/NS Calvert has announced Chris Richards as interim CEO during the company’s transition period.
This follows the retirement of Chuck Greene, which was effective March 15.

He started his steel career as a quality assurance engineer at Bethlehem Steel and rose through various roles of increasing responsibility in operations, quality assurance, process technology, logistics, and customer service.
“Calvert is set to continue growing and succeeding due to his experience and leadership skills,” the company said.
