My name is Josh Utke, I'm an experienced professional in the Transporation and Equipment industry. I have a lovely spouse who I enjoy traveling with, playing board games, card games, hiking, biking, golfing and enjoying all things the outdoors have to offer.
I started my career with Rush Enterprises (Rush Truck Center) in 2009 after graduating from Arizona St. University. I spent 11 years with Rush completing their Management Training Program, selling New Trucks for 8 years specializing in National Accounts and Vocational type customers; and finishing my tenure as a Sales Manager where I focused largely on developing formal onboarding and continuous sales training programs to attract a new wave of talented professionals to the industry.
In 2021 I joined Crossroads Equipment Lease and Finance as a Finance Manager/Business Development Manager and earned my CLFP shortly after. It was at this time that I gained exposure to the world of Equipment Finance Brokering and made the hard but exciting decision to start Sun Key Equipment Finance LLC where I will focus on providing finance solutions for customers in the Transportation/On-Highway/Vocational communities.
I never could have imagined I would wind up in the Transportation/Equipment Industry in various roles, but 12 years later I have had experiences, built relationships and forged partnerships that I wouldn't change for anything.
This will surely be a challenge but one that I look forward to working hard to achieve.
