Wright Tree Service, an employee-owned company specializing in utility vegetation management, recently promoted two internal leaders to division manager positions.

Jake Schweisthal will oversee operations in Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin. He joined WTS as a trimmer in 2003 and was most recently serving as a project manager. Jake is an International Society of Arboriculture Certified Arborist. In his free time, Jake enjoys spending time with his family engaging in any outdoor activity.

“I am very excited to have Jake in the role of Division Manager,” said Regional Manager Shane Vosberg. “His integrity, experience, and customer focus have proven to be exceptional throughout his time at WTS. We look forward to the new relationships that he will develop as he steps into this new role.”

Tim Hanson will oversee operations in Arkansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. He joined WTS in 2001 and worked as crew leader, work planner, and general foreperson before assuming his most recent role as project manager in St. Paul, Minnesota. He is also an ISA Certified Arborist.

Tim is looking forward to this new opportunity and is excited to lead at a new level. “Even though the region is completely new to me, I am excited to explore and learn about the team, the customers, and the area,” he said.
