The North American Trailer Dealers Association (NATDA) promoted Marketing Director Corey Langley to be its new operations director.
Langley earned the promotion through demonstrated teamwork and effort at the recent 2021 NATDA Trailer Show. He will oversee event operations, stepping into the role vacated by Andria Gibbon when she was promoted to be the executive director.
“I am excited for Corey to move into the director of operations role,” Gibbon said. “Throughout the planning of the 2021 event, it was evident that Corey’s passion for logistics and operations, combined with his years of experience at NATDA, would make him an ideal fit for this position. I look forward to seeing Corey take on this crucial role in event and sponsorship management that will lead to another successful show in Nashville.”
In his new role, Langley will work with Gibbon to execute the association’s annual trailer show, serve as a liaison for its exhibitors and work as the point-of-contact for NATDA sponsors. Langley will continue to serve as the head of the association’s marketing during a transitional period.
“I am thankful for the strong belief and faith in my abilities that NATDA’s president, Andy Ackerman, and Vice President Amy Ackerman have had in me,” Langley said. “I look forward to working alongside Executive Director Andria Gibbon and tackling new opportunities with the association.”
