Phillips Connect Hires Former Fleet Executive as Vice President, Enterprise Sales

Irvine, CA (April 4, 2023) – Phillips Connect has hired Jerry Mensinger as vice president, enterprise sales. Mensinger worked for more than 25 years at Werner Enterprises in a variety of sales leadership roles, most recently as associate vice president of specialized sales. His experience includes new business development, spend diversification, and margin improvement. Mensinger managed relationships with large national accounts, producing successful outcomes for both Werner and its customers.
