Quanex Building Products has invested in its North American marketing team and made moves that the company says will allow for more strategic marketing sightlines across the organization, supporting both the North American Fenestration side as well as the North American Cabinet Components division of the business.
Earlier this year, Cristina Murray was hired as the new North American director of marketing. Murray has more than 20 years of experience driving brand awareness and achieving market excellence in the B2B marketplace, with her most recent tenure at PPG Industries, Inc.
“We are thrilled to have Cristina on board at Quanex as our new Director of Marketing,” says Bob Daniels, president, NAF, Quanex. “Her deep experience with marketing will benefit NAF, NACC and Quanex as a whole.”
Carrie Scheetz was recently promoted to marketing manager, with a focus on the NAF business. Scheetz has been with Quanex for nearly 16 years, starting as a sales and marketing assistant with Edgetech prior to Quanex’s purchase of the company and most recently as a marketing project manager.
Kelly Woodward joins the team as the new marketing manager, supporting NACC as well as internal communications efforts. Woodward brings over 12 years of experience working in several different marketing roles, most recently at YRC Worldwide.
“We haven’t had a marketing team dedicated to NACC before, and we are excited to have them to help us focus on our internal and external communications moving forward,” says John Sleva, president, NACC, Quanex.
Marcus Barnhart was recently promoted to marketing creative services project manager with a role focused on driving creative strategy throughout the organization. Barnhart has been with Quanex for five years, most recently as a web marketing specialist and graphic designer.
Jocelyn Faenza joins the team as the new digital marketing manager, working to drive Quanex’s digital presence. She has 14 years of B2B digital marketing experience, most recently as the senior IT digital marketing analyst for PPG.
“Quanex is a unique company, with passionate and driven people,” Murray says. “I’m looking forward to leading this team as we drive marketing excellence throughout Quanex.”
