Morton Grove, Illinois-based Lakeshore Recycling Systems (LRS) has named Aric Henschen as vice president of operations, a newly created position the firm says has been designed to accommodate its growth. Henschen began his 20-year waste industry career as a driver and has assumed increasing responsibility before attaining his previous position as Midwest Area Director of Operations for Phoenix-based Republic Services Inc.
“As LRS continues to expand its Midwest presence, it’s critical we hire extremely qualified executives like Aric to lead and assist in growing our collection operations,” says LRS CEO Alan Handley. “We welcome Aric to the team and believe his impeccable background will support our operations team on the collections side of the business.”
John Larsen, LRS’ executive vice president of collection operations, says, “The vice president of operations is a key role to ensure the right processes and procedures are implemented safely, accurately and efficiently. I look forward to having Aric on the team and seeing how his experience and implementation ideas accelerate and improve our overall operations.”
