Ahern Promotes Herzing and Waites

Ahern recently promoted two of its St. Louis office employees. Ed Herzing, former shop manager, has been promoted to Service Department Manager. Herzing started with Ahern over 15 years ago, and has steadily progressed in his responsibilities. He has improved many Company operations during his tenure, including upgrading the office’s tool and inventory management system. Herzing brings his commitment to efficiency to his new role, in which he'll oversee regional service technicians and operations.

Stepping up to fill the position of Shop Manager is Kevin Waites. He has two years of service with Ahern, and over five years of industry experience. As Shop Manager, Waites will support Ahern's field teams in providing the materials and tools needed to complete its work on time.

"Kevin and Ed both carry excellent knowledge of the sprinkler industry, and have demonstrated a commitment to continued improvement," said Vice President John Schotz. "Their strengths will help to further develop our local shop and service departments as we continue to grow our St. Louis business operations."
