Dickerman will report to Paul Kratzer, director of sales for Canada and USA.

“Ryan will do a great job managing our sales team,” Kratzer said. “Ryan’s past roles at KYB have prepared him to take on the next level of responsibilities. His commitment to our customers and associates will lead him to success.”

“I’m thrilled to continue my career with KYB and I look forward to exploring all this new role has to offer,” Dickerman added.
