Angela Ambrose, former vice president of government relations and communications/marketing at General Motors‘ (NYSE: GM) defense business arm, was named VP of government operations at Oshkosh (NYSE: OSK).
The defense vehicle and equipment manufacturer said Monday Ambrose, who has over two decades of experience in legislative and executive branch, will lead Oshkosh’s global public policy in her new role.
Prior to joining GM Defense, the executive served as government relations, defense and national security portfolio lead at Accenture (NYSE: ACN) and senior manager of business development, congressional analysis and campaign strategy at Northrop Grumman‘s (NYSE: NOC) aerospace systems business.
“[Ambrose’s] extensive and diverse experience will further our government strategy, support the business’ key priorities and foster the strong relationships we have developed on Capitol Hill while building new ones at every level of government operations,” said Ignacio Cortina, executive vice president, chief legal officer and secretary of Oshkosh.
