Meet the Leadership Team at Centerline Machine

David Pozorski, Chief Operating Officer

David Pozorski joined the company as chief operating officer in August 2022. He is a people-first operations executive with 30 years of experience in business leadership, finance, sales, change management, production, engineering, Lean Operations, process management, efficiency enhancement, and workforce safety and compliance implementation. He’s a strategic leader who excels in critical listening, situational assessment and definitive decision making. He has the ability to address complex issues in a cohesive and collaborative manner with the proper allocation of workforce talent and process standardization. David is a high-energy, growth-minded executive who’s passionate about tackling challenges and believes that incorporating humor and fun into work is essential. His career path has been atypical since he’s worked in seven different industries – from mining to coatings to industrial and utility brushes to agriculture – and under a variety of ownership structures – private equity, privately held and publicly traded. He’s led acquisitions and integrations, domestic and international facility and plant expansions and has experience working in union and non-union organizations. Parallel to his corporate career, he served as a volunteer firefighter, EMT and dive rescue specialist for 13 years. Outside of work, David has a strong sense of community and giving back. Through coursework at WCTC, he secured his firefighter and EMT certification. He went on to become a dive rescue specialist and was a captain for the Okauchee, Wis., Fire Department and lieutenant for the Lake Country Fire Department. He’s also volunteered his time as program director for an area volleyball club. David enjoys spending much of his time with his children, assisting their home projects, camping and movies. When not relaxing with the cats, David can be found in the kitchen trying out new recipes.
