United Site Services Names New CEO and CFO

Asterios Satrazemis and Scott Jamroz join company to lead next phase of growth

WESTBOROUGH, Mass.–United Site Services, the nation’s leader in portable sanitation and temporary fence rental services, announced this week the appointment of Asterios Satrazemis as CEO and Scott Jamroz as CFO.

“Under Ron’s leadership as CEO, United Site Services achieved remarkable growth and is well positioned to take the next step”

Mr. Satrazemis succeeds Ron Carapezzi, who has served as President and CEO since 2009. Mr. Carapezzi will transition into the role of Chairman and is expected to remain a meaningful equity partner in the business.

United Site Services was acquired by Platinum Equity in August 2017.

“Under Ron’s leadership as CEO, United Site Services achieved remarkable growth and is well positioned to take the next step,” said Platinum Equity partner Louis Samson. “We thank Ron for his contributions and are pleased the business will benefit from his continued support and partnership.”

Most recently, Mr. Satrazemis and Mr. Jamroz held the CEO and CFO roles, respectively, at BlueLine Rental. BlueLine was the fourth largest general equipment rental provider in North America. The two executives led a turnaround of BlueLine under Platinum Equity’s ownership that resulted in the $2.1 billion sale of the business to United Rentals in the fourth quarter of 2018.

“Since we acquired United Site Services, the business has proven to be a strong platform for growth, both organically and through M&A, with significant untapped potential ahead,” said Mr. Samson. “Asterios is the perfect fit to drive the next phase of the company’s evolution. As we saw first-hand with the success of BlueLine, he’s an outstanding leader and a terrific partner. We are excited to work with him again.”

Mr. Satrazemis brings a depth of experience in the rental industry to United Site Services, not just in the general equipment space, but in the specialty sector as well. Prior to serving as CEO of BlueLine, Satrazemis was President of the Americas for Aggreko, a leader in temporary power and temperature control solutions.

“No other site services provider has the legacy and reach of United Site Services,” said Mr. Satrazemis. “I’m excited for the opportunity to lead the team in expanding our position as the leading player in the market while continuing to deliver a best-in-class experience for our customers.”

Mr. Carapezzi said he’s grateful for the experience he’s had and excited about the company’s future.

“I feel fortunate for the opportunity I had to lead United Site Services over the past decade as it grew into a market leader in portable sanitation,” said Mr. Carapezzi. “I have the utmost confidence that we are well positioned for the next phase of growth led by Asterios and the leadership team.”
