C.H. Robinson ( NASDAQ: CHRW ) has picked David Bozeman, a Ford Motor Co. executive, as the next CEO of the nation's largest freight broker.
The announcement is expected as early as Monday, according to a FreightWaves report , which cited people familiar.
Bozeman is currently vice president of the customer services division and enthusiast brands at Ford ( F ). Previously, he held positions at Amazon Transportation Services, Caterpillar ( CAT ), and Harley-Davidson ( HOG ), according to the report.
The choice of Bozeman may be somewhat of a surprise after a Reuters report in early March tha t former UPS ( UPS ) Chief Operating Officer Jim Barber ( CHRW ) was in advanced talks to be named C.H. Robinson ( CHRW ) CEO following the departure of Bob Biesterfeld.
The latest report comes after C.H. Robinson ( CHRW ) appointed Scott Anderson as interim CEO in January after Biesterfeld stepped down as president and CEO and as a board member.
