Arlington Industries announces organizational changes

Arlington Industries, Inc. announced several management appointments within the company.

Nick Montalbano has been appointed to the position of eastern regional sales manager. He will be based in Warwick, R.I.

Montalbano began his career in the electrical industry with Dual-Lite in 1980. He joins Arlington following a 26-year career with AFC Cabling Systems (now part of Atkore), where he held increasing positions of responsibility in purchasing, manufacturing and sales management. Most recently, Montalbano served as the national sales manager for Kaf-Tech.

In his new role, Montalbano will work with some of the electrical industry’s leading independent sales representative agencies in promoting and selling Arlington’s innovative and labor-saving special products and traditional die-cast products to distributors, end users and installers from Maine to Virginia.

This position became available because Ray Kennedy, Arlington’s national sales manager – who also functioned as the regional sales manager for the Eastern seaboard – wanted to reduce his 2013 travel schedule. Kennedy, a recognized electrical industry figure, and the leader of Arlington’s sales efforts for more than 24 years, will remain with the company, focusing on special projects, product positioning and strategic actions for Arlington President Tom Stark.

Don Ambrose, formerly southern regional sales manager has assumed Kennedy’s position and the title of national sales manager.

Arlington welcomes Nick Montalbano to the company in his new opportunity as eastern regional manager, congratulates Don Ambrose on his promotion – and recognizes Ray Kennedy for his many years of service and leadership resulting in Arlington’s attainment of the position it holds in our industry today.
