VANCOUVER, BC – Brett Libke will lead Oppy in the newly-created role VP of Sales, gradually assuming responsibility for Oppy’s Western U.S. offices over 2018. In this role, Libke directs the sales strategy and marketing development initiatives for the full range of Oppy Products across the U.S. and oversees more than four dozen sales professionals across 10 offices.
“As our business grows in scope and complexity, Brett’s excellent management skills, strategic abilities, and deep familiarity with our products and customer base will enable us to continue to provide excellent service and solutions to our customers and grower network,” said David Smith, President and Chief Marketing Officer, in a recent press release.
Libke has worked with Oppy since August of 2011, first joining as a Senior Sales Representative and working his way up, through the roles of Director of Sales and General Manager, to his current Position as Vice President of Sales. Libke will inherit much of his responsibility from Walt Breeden, VP of Sales for Canada and the U.S. West Coast, allowing Breeden to turn his focus upward, lending support down the West Coast, while leading Canada’s Oppy teams.
Libke looks forward to the new responsibility, hoping to continue to distinguish himself through his ability to grow business partnerships.
“I’m looking forward to optimizing our U.S. sales resources and cohesively focusing the team’s energy on our objectives,” Libke said. “I’m excited to grow our business and develop the next generation of sales leaders at Oppy.”
