Ash joined Orbis<\/a> in 2003, was named vice president of finance in 2004 and assumed the role of president in 2009.<\/p>\n

Under his leadership as president, Orbis<\/a> delivered unprecedented growth while establishing a very high standard of commitment to employees, customers, suppliers and communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a privilege to have served Orbis<\/a>,\u201d Ash said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI worked with incredible employees, customers and community members, and am confident in Orbis<\/a>\u2019 continued success and growth under Norm\u2019s leadership and vision.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBill continuously demonstrated Menasha Corporation<\/a>\u2019s values in action and an ability to \u2018get things done,\u2019\u201d said Jim Kotek, president and CEO, Menasha Corporation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe thank Bill for his outstanding leadership and contributions that have positioned Orbis<\/a> as the industry-leading reusable packaging company.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kukuk started his career with Orbis<\/a> in 1998 as an associate product manager.<\/p>\n

In 2009, following numerous promotions within Orbis<\/a>\u2019 product management group, Kukuk was appointed vice president of marketing and product management.<\/p>\n
