PRESIDENT: Brad Thomas
Operations and Facility Manager
With over 25 years of experience in Managing Facilities in the Chicago and Los Angeles Markets from Office Space, Data Centers, and Distribution Centers I have worked with Material Handling Equipment from Lift Trucks, Batteries, Chargers, Conveyor Systems, Racking and other equipment used to run a facility of any type. I have managed large Maintenance teams that make sure the facilities stay up and running and associates stay working.
In 2013, a current Board Member of MHMS Chicagoland and Vendor I had been working with on many projects asked me to join the Board. I enjoyed meeting with professionals that shared the same interest
that I had and loved the cause of the group. Raising funds to give out scholarships for young adults going to school for Material Handling. Also giving tours and educating other professionals on Material
Handling and networking between all of them.
Now being President of MHMS I am happy with the direction of the Board and the purpose of the group. I look forward to more years of networking and spreading the knowledge of Material Handling.
