SAN JOSE, CA — Larry Beltramo, President and COO of Rosendin, an employee-owned electrical contracting firm, has been named the Interim President of the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA). Beltramo will remain President and COO of Rosendin while serving as the Interim President of NECA.

The move follows the resignation of former NECA President, David Long, as he accepts a new role to serve as CEO of the organization.

“As the voice of the $171-billion electrical construction industry that brings power, light and communication technology to buildings and communities across the U.S., NECA plays an important role for electrical companies of all sizes,” Beltramo said. “I’m honored that the Executive Committee asked me to serve as the Interim President of NECA as David Long makes his transition to the staff side of the association to grow the national organization and best serve the 119 NECA chapters across the U.S.”

Beltramo had served as a Vice President at Large of NECA since January 2018. He was chosen by the Executive Committee to serve as Interim President until a new President is elected at the NECA Board of Governors meeting this September in Las Vegas.
