AXCS Equipment has appointed Shaun Byrne as its new Northeast regional sales manager. Based in Richfield, Wisconsin, the company announced the appointment on October 21, 2026.
In the role, Byrne will manage regional accounts, expand equipment availability across the Northeast, and provide support for AXCS scissor lifts and telehandlers. He will also focus on relationships with dealer and rental partners, sales growth, and new business opportunities throughout the region.
Byrne brings 13 years of experience in the equipment rental industry, having held several leadership and customer-facing positions at Sunbelt Rentals. His previous roles include outside sales representative, branch manager, and market logistics operational manager. His experience spans sales leadership, branch operations, and fleet logistics.
"I am thrilled to join AXCS Equipment at such an exciting time in the company's growth," said Byrne. "What stands out to me most about AXCS is that this is an organization that genuinely listens to the customer and implements real changes to its equipment to solve field challenges. My approach has always been to put myself directly in the customer’s shoes — asking how I would want to be supported so that doing business together is a seamless, long-term partnership."
David Porter, vice president of sales for AXCS Equipment, said Byrne's experience in rental operations and branch management would support the company's Northeast territory.
"We are very excited to welcome Shaun to the AXCS sales team to lead our Northeast territory," said Porter. "Shaun pairs a strong background in rental operations and branch management with a relentless work ethic and exceptional listening skills. Having spent over a decade in the rental industry, he understands the operational realities our partners face every day, making him an invaluable resource for our customers in the Northeast."
