Oshkosh Corporation, parent company of JLG Industries, has announced the appointment of Matthew Field as Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective December 16, 2024.
Field will succeed Michael Pack, who earlier this year transitioned to the role of president of Oshkosh’s Vocational segment.

Previously, Field held various leadership positions during his two-decade tenure at Ford Motor Company, including CFO of Ford North America, overseeing approximately $100 billion in annual revenue.
“We are pleased to welcome Matt to the organization,” John Pfeifer, Oshkosh Corporation president and CEO said.
“Matt is exceptionally well-suited to support our growth strategy. His extensive financial experience, strategic vision and people-first leadership style make him an excellent choice as we work to expand our innovative portfolio and drive long-term value.”
“Oshkosh is an industry leader with cutting-edge products and a best-in-class operating model,” Field said.
“I am excited to be a part of the strong Oshkosh culture and to leverage my skills and experience to continue to grow the business, expand margins and deliver long-term value for our customers and shareholders.”
