Worthington Steel, Inc., (NYSE: WS) announced today that Cliff Larivey, senior vice president of commercial and purchasing, has been named president of Flat-Roll Steel Processing, effective Dec. 1, 2024. Jeff Klingler, executive vice president and chief operating officer, has been performing the role since Dec. 1, 2023. This structure will allow Klingler to focus on the Company’s global business operations and executing its growth and optimization strategy.

“During his tenure, Cliff has been instrumental in building and maintaining strong customer and supplier partnerships, including successfully navigating supply chain challenges during the pandemic, to deliver world-class customer service. He’s also played an integral role in developing our buying intelligence and price risk capabilities,” said Worthington Steel President and CEO Geoff Gilmore. “I have every confidence that through Cliff’s leadership, we will grow our flat-roll processing business and deliver on our strategic vision.”

Larivey, 51, has served as the Company’s senior vice president of commercial and purchasing since Worthington Steel’s separation from the former Worthington Industries in December 2023. Prior to that, he was vice president of purchasing for Worthington Industries for 11 years. Larivey joined Worthington Industries as director of steel purchasing when the Company acquired Gibraltar Strip Steel in February 2010. At Gibraltar, Larivey held several roles of increasing responsibility including production scheduler, materials application and inside sales manager. He was named vice president of marketing at Gibraltar in 2008 and added purchasing to his title in 2009. Larivey earned his bachelor’s degree in business from the University of New York at Buffalo.

Under Larivey’s leadership, Marc Gase, vice president of price risk and supply chain, Doug Kovach, vice president of sales and marketing and Jason Miller, vice president of purchasing, will continue to oversee the commercial organization, and Brad Kern, vice president of operations, will continue to head up operations. With their combined tenure, they bring more than 100 years of expertise to the Company.
