Industry Veteran Tapped to Lead JSW Steel USA Mills

According to The Business Line, Mark Bush succeeds John Hritz as chief executive of the U.S. division. Bush, who is an AIST member, most recently served as general manager of SSAB’s Mobile, Ala., operations.

Hritz will remain with the boards responsible for JSW’s Baytown, Texas, and Mingo Junction, Ohio, plants, the newspaper said.  

JSW Steel USA director Parth Jindal said Bush’s two decades of experience in both steelmaking and rolling mills will be leveraged to complete the electric arc furnace and caster upgrade in Mingo Junction and modernization of the plate and pipe mill at Baytown, The Business Line reported.
