Eriez promoted Jaisen Kohmuench to COO.

In the position, Kohmuench will manage all of Eriez’s major operations – including Eriez-USA, Eriez Global Flotation and Eriez international businesses. According to the company, Kohmuench will continue to work closely with corporate executives and others to ensure Eriez’s growth. 

Kohmuench is a veteran of the Eriez corporate leadership team, most recently serving as vice president of international. Kohmuench held this position for three years before accepting this latest promotion.  

“From his earliest days in research and development through his role managing the U.S. flotation group and later in an overseas assignment as managing director for Eriez-Australia, Jaisen has distinguished himself as a talented leader with tremendous financial and operational acumen,” says Lukas Guenthardt, Eriez president and CEO. “He has developed and directed immediate and long-term business plans and profitable growth initiatives across Eriez’s global magnetic, flotation and service operations sectors.”

Eriez says Kohmuench is credited as an inventor and has his name on more than a dozen patents. He also authored a number of technical papers for scientific and technical journals.    

“With Jaisen’s guidance and the support of his highly skilled worldwide team, Eriez is well-poised to successfully propel our business into the future,” Guenthardt says.
