Malarkey Roofing Products,® Portland, Ore., has announced the retirement of its president, Gregory B. Malarkey. Dale Rushing, formerly COO, has been named president of the company.
“Malarkey Roofing Products has long maintained a focus on sustainability in terms of our products, the planet, and our people,” Malarkey said. “As president, my company stewardship involved succession planning for future generations. Now, after four decades in the roofing industry and several years providing leadership, I believe the company is positioned, staffed, and supported to excel beyond my own vision.”
Malarkey is a veteran of the roofing industry and has held leadership roles within the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association, Asphalt Roofing Environmental Council and Asphalt Institute. He is the only two-time winner of the Outstanding Service Award from Western States Roofing Contractors Association.
Rushing joined Malarkey as COO in 2020. He came to the company with more than 20 years of experience in roofing products and leadership roles overseeing operations, finance and administration.
“The Malarkey family has established a strong foundation in the roofing industry,” Rushing said. “Greg’s leadership is evidence of that strength, dedication, and innovation. It has been a remarkable opportunity to work with, and learn from, Greg directly over the last few years. Despite how challenging those years may have been, our team has propelled the company into new realms of success. With our recent acquisition by Holcim, we are positioned to grow even faster and further than ever before. I am honored to be at the helm as it happens.”
