About JLG, an Oshkosh company

JLG began in 1969, when our founder, John L. Grove set out to resolve growing safety concerns in the construction industry.

We are a global company, and our products—including mobile elevating work platforms, telehandlers, utility vehicles and accessories—can be found all over the world.

• Lead successful product launches, including field trials, demonstrations, and go-to-market execution.
• Equip Sales and Service teams with the tools and messaging needed to clearly articulate value-based selling propositions.
• Engage directly with customers, dealers, and rental partners to validate strategy and identify growth opportunities.
