JACKSONVILLE, FL – April 4, 2019 – Waste Pro has appointed Brian Wintjen as Regional Vice President for the company’s North Florida region, which includes offices in Jacksonville, Lake City, Gainesville, Putnam, and Palm Coast. Wintjen will be based in the Regional Headquarters in Jacksonville.
Wintjen has nearly 40 years of experience in the waste industry, beginning his career as a driver in Alabama after graduating high school. Since then, he has gone on to hold supervisor/manager positions with several major waste companies, including BFI (now Republic Services), Nature’s Calling Inc., and Watson C&D.
“Brian was highly recommended to me personally by a former colleague,” said Waste Pro President Sean Jennings. “With his years of experience and his can-do attitude, I have no doubt he will lead North Florida as one of our strongest performing regions.”
