ACRT Pacific Announces New Safety Manager
We’re proud to announce that Raul E. Perez Jr. has been named ACRT Pacific’s new safety manager. Perez has been a valued member of our team since 2014 and most recently served as a contract vegetation program manager. Throughout his time with ACRT Pacific, Perez has demonstrated a strong commitment to safety, excellence, and leadership — qualities that make him an excellent fit for this critical role.
In addition to his operational experience, Perez is an active member of the ACRT Pacific Safety Committee and is well-regarded across the organization for his dedication to fostering a culture of safety. He holds several important industry credentials, including being an ISA Certified Arborist, having the ISA Tree Risk Assessment Qualification (TRAQ), and completing the OSHA 30-Hour certification.
Perez was also one of the inaugural recipients of the ACRT Pacific Safety Champion Challenge Coin — an honor that reflects his consistent efforts to lead by example and champion safety at every level. He also brings a unique perspective to the role, having served as an employee-elected member of the ACRT Services Board of Directors from 2018 to 2020. His wide-ranging experience and deep understanding of our operations and values will serve him well as he steps into this new position.
“Raul has been a dedicated advocate for safety at ACRT Pacific. He’s stepped up time and again, bringing strong leadership and a deep commitment to our safety culture. We’re proud to have him in this role,” shared ACRT and ACRT Pacific President C. Troy Ross.
