Williams will formally step down from his executive role and board seat on December 31, 2026, though he plans to remain with the organization as a special advisor through June 30, 2027. His successor, Westbrooks, is slated to assume the president and chief executive officer position effective January 1, 2027.
Chairman Ronald A. Rice credited Williams with navigating a significant corporate transformation, which prioritized operational excellence and disciplined capital allocation. Westbrooks, who joined the company in 2018, previously held leadership roles at A. Schulman and The Procter & Gamble Company. His appointment follows a comprehensive succession planning process intended to maintain the firm’s momentum in the specialty steel and components market.
