As Trimble's chief digital officer, Schwartz will be responsible for leading the transformation initiatives of Trimble's business systems, processes and infrastructure to better serve the customer through the transition to "as-a-service" business models.
"Mark brings a unique blend of skills and experience to this position," said Painter.

Schwartz was chief operating officer of a joint venture between Trimble and Caterpillar as well as serving in several senior management roles in finance and technology over his 23-year career.
"Sustainability is one of the defining issues of our generation to address environmental challenges. For decades, Trimble solutions have contributed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and combating climate change," said Painter. "The nature of Trimble's technologies provides efficiencies and promotes sustainability in our end markets such as construction, agriculture, forestry, utilities and transportation. Trimble is also taking the next steps in our corporate social responsibility efforts by appointing Leah to lead our sustainability initiative. Our leadership team is committed to further reducing our carbon footprint as well as continuing to develop solutions that enable our customers to reduce their environmental impact. With Leah's experience and leadership capabilities, Trimble is poised to do its part to help build a better world."

"I am grateful to transition this role to Albert whose passion for, and experience in, philanthropic work will inspire and engage Trimble employees, while having a lasting impact on the communities we serve," said Painter.
