Sask. Trucking Association names new director

SASKATOON — Denis Prud’homme, President of the Saskatchewan Trucking Association (STA), has announced the appointment of Al Rosseker as executive director.

“I’m pleased that our association has brought Al onto the STA team,” Prud’homme said. “Working in conjunction with our Board of Directors and members, we believe he will provide added leadership and innovation in these changing times for the trucking industry.”

Saskatchewan born and raised, Rosseker’s expertise has centered on communications, business consulting and information technology.

A former city editor of the Regina Leader-Post, Rosseker’s consulting company has branched out into successful working partnerships with ISM Saskatchewan, IBM Global Services, IBM World Trade, the University of Saskatchewan, Trinity Communications Inc., and, most recently, the Saskatchewan Architectural Heritage Society.

“Like so many other sectors, the trucking industry is facing various challenges, including driver shortages, fuel costs, emission standards and such,” Prud’homme said. “Al Rosseker will help us to establish processes and best practices to deal effectively with these challenges. We welcome him to this exciting industry.”
