USPS Names Bernstock to New Mailing Services Presidency

The U.S. Postal Service has created a new operating structure to reflect changes in the business landscape.

First off, the USPS is grouping all major shipping and mailing products in one unit and has named Robert F. Bernstock president of its newly created shipping and mailing services division.

This unit encompasses product management, product development and commercial sales and will be responsible for more than $70 billion of annual revenue.

Bernstock comes to the USPS after some 30 years in senior corporate leadership positions. Most recently, he was chairman/CEO of Securesheet Technologies. Before that, he was president/COO of Scotts Miracle-Gro Co., senior vice president and general manager of the Dial Corp., president/CEO of Atlas Commerce and executive vice president of Campbell Soup Co.

Reporting to him will be David Shoenfeld, who becomes the newly created senior vice president of mailing services. Shoenfeld was formerly senior vice president of worldwide marketing for Federal Express.

Stephen Kearney, current vice president of pricing and classification, will lead customer relations as a senior vice president. This group will centralize the key consumer and business customer relationships, external and internal communications, as well as integrating pricing into a single unit, according to the USPS.
