June 3, 2021 – ROCK HILL, South Carolina – Atlas Copco Power Technique is pleased to announce Jim O’Brien as the Vice President of Strategic Accounts, effective immediately. O’Brien has been a part of the Atlas Copco group since 2000. After working up from the service team, Meadow McClure has joined the Strategic Accounts team.
Originally joined the Atlas Copco group 21 years ago, O’Brien started his journey with Atlas Copco as a Key Account Manager for General Motors with CPT Chicago Pneumatic/Techmotive. There, he was responsible for business development and maintaining and growing market share within vital automotive accounts, managing growth by working in conjunction with high-level management at client locations including technical centers, advanced project engineering, and purchasing.
In 2007, O’Brien was promoted to Global Key Customer Manager for Portable Energy, working for Atlas Copco Airpower N.V. in Belgium. He later became the Regional Marketing Manager for China Southeast Asia and Oceania in March 2010, stationed in Shanghai.
We believe Jim has the skills and experience needed for challenges that require a seat at the table for the senior executive team.
In March 2013, O’Brien returned to the U.S. to serve as the Integration Manager for American Pneumatic Tools. He was promoted to Vice President, Business Line Management for Construction Tools, and in 2017 to the position of Vice President, Business Line Management for Power and Flow at Atlas Copco Power Technique.
Jim will focus on the critical importance of our key accounts, and elevate its status in the organization to the direct management team,” said Davis. “We’re happy to have him on board.
With O’Brien’s background and experience in sales, business development, and customer relationship management, he is a strong fit for this newly created position.
Along with O’Brien, Atlas Copco Power Technique is pleased to welcome Meadow McClure as the Strategic Accounts Specialist, assisting designated strategic accounts to help maintain and grow customer share within current accounts.
McClure has been with the Atlas Copco group for eight years. She started her journey as a Service Coordinator for BeaconMedaes, then later moved to the role of Equipment Coordinator for Power Technique North America. Now, McClure’s main responsibility is assisting with customer service on major accounts and supporting any urgencies.
I love the challenge of having something come across my email as something urgent,” said McClure. “It’s like a puzzle. I really want to surprise the customer and make them happy and do the best that I can.
