Wozniak appointed to Carrier board

USA: Beth Wozniak, CEO and director of US electrical connection and protection solutions business, nVent Electric, has been appointed to the board of Carrier.

Prior to leading nVent, Wozniak was senior vice president and president of Pentair’s electrical business. Pentair spun its electrical business to form nVent in April 2018. Before joining Pentair, Wozniak held key leadership and P&L roles during her 25-year tenure at Honeywell, including overseeing critical technologies for HVAC systems.

Carrier maintains that Wozniak’s various roles have provided a deep experience in sensing, automation, controls and electrification, and in applying digital and technology solutions to buildings.

“Her strong track record of applying digital and technology solutions to industrial companies in the building space, combined with her experience leading a recently spun company, helps her bring a unique and compelling skill set to our Board,” said Carrier chairman and CEO Dave Gitlin.
