He also pursued new business opportunities and maintained a 100% renewal rate for existing customer contracts.

Before his time at ITS Partners, Van Hekken had a long career at Dematic Corp., first joining the company as a systems engineer in 1997. He moved to the sales side in 2004, working his way up to director of Customer Service sales for North America and eventually senior director of Global Lifecycle Services for the company.
