Ms. Lehr holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a Major in Accounting from Marquette University and is a certified public accountant (currently inactive).

“Rachele is an accomplished strategic leader whose unique blend of financial and business acumen remain valuable assets as we further advance our MBX value creation journey,” stated Jag Reddy, President and CEO of MEC. “As a trusted business partner with a proven ability to drive organizational transformation, we’re excited to have Rachele lead our finance team during this next, important phase for our business.”

“Since joining our organization in 2008, Todd has built a strong finance team well-equipped to further advance our multi-year value creation strategy,” continued Reddy.  “I would like to thank Todd for his many contributions during his 17-year career with MEC and wish him the very best as he embarks on this next chapter.”

“MEC is a market-leading industrial solutions company with a clear vision for profitable growth,” stated Rachele Lehr, incoming Chief Financial Officer. “I am excited to assume the CFO role at a pivotal moment for the organization and look forward to partnering with our talented finance team as we seek to drive long-term value creation for both our customers and loyal shareholders.”
