ROCKFORD, IL - Obsidian Manufacturing Industries, Inc., formally Magna-Lock USA, Inc., would like to welcome Nicholas Rivers to our sales team.

Rivers joins Obsidian’s team, led by David Nordman, with over 30 years of sales knowledge. His vast experience in managing projects, training, customer service and account management made him the perfect candidate for the position.

“I have the opportunity to thrive with a company that’s big enough to compete on the worldwide stage, yet small enough to feel like family,” says Rivers. “I love to come to work every day. Let’s do it with a smile–every customer–every time.”

Rivers consistently brings a positive attitude to his position by looking at every problem as an opportunity to overcome. He has been a volunteer with the Young Life ministry for over 25 years and understands that a job goes far beyond a paid position.
