Flomatic Corporation, a global valve manufacturer and leader in the water and wastewater industry, has announced the promotion of Jim Tucci to national sales manager.
Promoted by executive vice president Nick Farrara, Tucci will continue to lead the expansion of Flomatic Valve Products nationally and internationally. He will also oversee Flomatic’s Customer Service Department.
“Jim has done an outstanding job, consistently growing Flomatic’s sales on our municipal and industrial valves,” Farrara said. “His extensive background and knowledge of water and wastewater systems make him an excellent choice for this position. I am looking forward to continuing to work closely with Jim in the years to come.”
Tucci joined Flomatic Valves in August 2014 as the industrial and municipal sales engineer after a long career as a driller, both as an owner/operator of a water well and geothermal drilling company in Upstate New York and several positions with environmental firms performing sonic drilling and direct-push sampling.
“I am both humbled and excited that Nick and the board of directors have chosen me for the national sales manager position,” Tucci said. “With all of the strange curveballs that my professional career has thrown at me, it is a testament that hard work, faith, and perseverance will reward in the end.”
Tucci is a graduate of the Colorado School of Mines and holds a master’s in environmental science and engineering. He completed his undergraduate studies at the State University of New York College at Oneonta, where he received a dual Bachelor of Science in physics and water resources. He was recognized by the National Groundwater Association as a certified well driller and pump installer (CWD/PI), and as a certified vertical closed-loop driller (CVCLD) during his drilling career.
