BUFFALO, NY – Justin Carr was named Chief Operating Officer of Eberl Iron Works, Inc. He will assume his new role on January 2, 2025, following the retirement of Greg Jones, Operations Manager.
“We are pleased that Justin accepted this position,” said John Eberl, Chief Executive Officer. “Justin’s business acumen and commitment to our company’s core values made him the natural choice to take this opportunity to the next level.”

In this newly created role, Carr will oversee the day-to-day production and facilities operations and the inside and outside sales departments. He will be the third highest ranking officer in the company behind co-owners John Eberl and Nora Eberl, Chief Financial Officer.
Carr was introduced to EIW in 2012 as an intern while in graduate school at Canisius University. He joined the staff later that year as a Sales Associate, beginning a goal-driven career trajectory. Motivated and eager to drive sales in existing and new markets, he became a sales representative in the company’s Rooftop Support Systems division in 2014. By 2016, he was named Systems and Design Program Manager where he developed annual business plans, managed a team of estimators, and collaborated with engineers to guarantee deliverables met project specifications. He was named National Sales Manager in 2021 where he coached the sales team to achieve more than 20-percent sales growth over plan for three consecutive years.
“Justin’s professional growth within EIW is extraordinary,” said Nora Eberl, “because it reflects his understanding of our complex product lines and his ability to educate and motivate his sales teams accordingly. His leadership inspires his team members to grow as professionals, too, while delivering revenue growth opportunities for the company. This cycle of success makes a great impact on his team and our company.”
