Bowater Leadership

To drive Bowater’s new organizational structure, we realigned our leadership team in 2006 to create renewed focus on customers and operational excellence.

Key company veterans and seasoned industry leaders recently recruited to Bowater are bringing a powerful mix of industry expertise to our planning, manufacturing, sales and operations support teams.

Collectively, these leaders are spearheading broad new company-wide efforts to succeed in a rapidly changing global market. Our sales and service leaders are using their intimate knowledge of customer needs, aspirations and challenges to enhance the value of choosing Bowater as a key supplier. Our manufacturing leadership is acting on opportunities that will enhance our mills and build operational excellence at each location. Our operations support staff is optimizing processes and internal capabilities to benefit our customers and businesses. We are achieving greater efficiencies, lowering operating costs and finding new ways to improve margins.
