Komatsu Appoints New Rental Manager

Ewen Gilchrist has become Komatsu’s rental business manager for Europe, replacing Benoit Fosséprez who has left the company to join a non construction-related business in Luxemburg.

Gilchrist, who is based in Brussels, Belgium, joined Komatsu five years ago from Terex Construction Equipment, where he was a product manager for articulated dump trucks, based in Scotland. His most recent post at Komatsu Europe was OEM business development, a job that he will now combine with his new rental responsibilities.
