Jack York Appointed Chief Financial Officer
Jack York, who currently serves as Ewing’s Mountain States Divisional Vice President, will transition to the role of CFO on Sept. 1, 2026.

The role entails guiding the company’s financial health, managing risk, and aligning fiscal strategy with overall business operations to ensure sustainable profitability and market expansion.
York represents the fourth generation of family leadership at Ewing. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Economics with a concentration in finance from the University of Pennsylvania. Prior to rejoining the family business, he specialized in mergers and acquisitions at Solomon Partners, an investment banking advisory firm in New York City. Throughout his tenure at Ewing, York has held various operational roles, including Branch Manager, National Irrigation Product Manager, Director of Product Line Management and Regional Manager, giving him deep knowledge of both the financial and functional sides of the business.

During his time with Ewing, Kintzinger has successfully managed and led the company's inside sales team and national account executives, while working closely and collaboratively with Ewing’s entire sales force and marketing department. Under his leadership, these departments achieved significant milestones in customer acquisition, account retention, and business growth.
