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.

With the relevant experience gained during his career, Mensinger will bring a keen understanding to his role at Phillips Connect of how large fleets can increase their bottom-line success through operational improvements. Phillips Connect offers telematics solutions that are designed to improve overall safety and security, reduce costs in fleet maintenance, and dramatically enhance fleet asset utilization – the larger the fleet, the greater the opportunity.

“Knowing the challenges as well as the opportunities of running a large fleet operation as Jerry does will represent Phillips Connect well as the best solution for those companies to optimize the management of their assets,” said Rob Phillips, CEO and president. “Jerry will communicate the advantages of our systems to the major commercial fleets in N.
