MOLSON Group has appointed Nick Learoyd as MD of Powerscreen Texas, one of four regional dealerships in Molson’s US portfolio.

Learoyd brings decades of operational, sales, and management experience within the heavy equipment sector to the role. He spent 15 years working for earthmoving and civil engineering specialist Alfred McAlpine before moving into sales for truck manufacturer Bell Equipment.

Latterly, his role at Bell saw Learoyd spend over a decade as the company’s UK MD.

“I am excited to join Powerscreen Texas and look forward to leveraging my experience to enhance our operations,” he said. “Texas is a thriving market with immense opportunities, and I am eager to work alongside this talented team to drive innovation, customer satisfaction, and sustainable growth.”

The appointment marks another milestone in Molson’s North America expansion. The group said Learoyd’s understanding of the construction and aggregate equipment sectors, combined with his customer-centric approach, will help solidify Powerscreen Texas’ position as one of the continent’s leading single source solution providers within the aggregates, recycling, construction, and earthmoving sectors.

“We are thrilled to welcome Nick to the team,” added Molson Group CEO Robin Powell. “His leadership and industry experience will be invaluable in advancing our mission of delivering top-tier equipment and support to customers across Texas and beyond.

“Being able to recruit an experienced individual such as Nick bolsters our drive to enhance our management structure within the US markets and offer our customers an enhanced level of commitment mirroring our UK operations.”
