Dynapac Appoints Yann Monnet North American President And General Manager.

Just before World of Asphalt 2025, the biggest annual trade show for the asphalt industry, it was revealed by Dynapac North America that Jamie Roush would be stepping away from his role as president, a role he assumed in September 2021. 

During his more than three and a half years leading the company, he oversaw many new initiatives and products in the North American market, expanding the company’s footprint and brand awareness. 

Today, a new era for Dynapac North America, a FAYAT Group company, begins with the appointment of Yann Monnet as the new President and General Manager. He arrives with almost thirty years of international experience in finance and supply chain management. Dynapac says that he has a proven track record of executive leadership and operational excellence spanning the United States, Mexico, and France. 

The transition comes, however, at a tumultuous time not only in America but for international trade in general. The Trump Administration just completed its first 100 days, and several key economic indicators show the economy contracted during this period. 

Additionally, there are concerns that this could be the start of a recession. These are the same challenges facing all leaders of international manufacturers at the moment, so the hope is that Monnet’s prior experience will serve him getting up to speed.

Prior to taking on this role, Yann held senior executive roles at the FAYAT Group, spending over ten years leading finance and operations teams in North America. He built and developed high-perfoming teams, implemented strategic initiatives to boost efficiency and profitability. All experience that will help navigate the current climate. 

This new position will see him focus on driving sustainable business growth, further operational excellence, and strengthen Dynapac’s presence in the NA market place. 

“I am honored to join Dynapac and lead the North American team during this exciting time of growth and innovation,” said Yann Monnet, President and General Manager of Dynapac North America. “I look forward to working alongside a talented team to strengthen our operations further, support our customers, and drive sustainable success across the region.”

Yann is fully committed to Dynapac’s unique identity, values, and vision. His focus is on deepening trust with Dynapac’s dealer partners and customers, ensuring long-term continuity, and delivering exceptional value.
