Martina McIsaac, currently general manager of Hilti Canada, will be promoted to Region Head and Chief Executive Officer of Hilti North America effective Jan. 1, 2020. Martina was chosen after a comprehensive internal search for a candidate with a proven track record of success, deep understanding of the business and commitment to company culture.

Martina joined Hilti in 2013 as a senior management candidate and in 2014 became a division manager. Three years later she was promoted to her current role as general manager for the Canada Market Organization. Martina’s drive and ability to lead have had a lasting impact resulting in sustained sales growth for Hilti Canada during her tenure.

Most recently, Hilti was again named to the Top 50 list by Great Place to Work Canada with special recognition on the list of Best Workplaces Managed by Women.    

“Over the last five years, I have developed a deep passion for our industry, our team members and our customers. I look forward to continuing to build on the strong foundation created by Avi by working alongside my colleagues on the North America Executive Management team to take Hilti even further,” said McIsaac.
