CT’s United Rentals promotes Flannery to COO

Greenwich building equipment-leasing giant United Rentals Inc. promoted its point-man overseeing its integration with the Canadian counterpart it merged with earlier this week as its chief operating officer.

Matt Flannery remains an executive vice president. Flannery previously headed operations and sales and is assigned to lead the integration team of former RSC Holdings Inc. into United Rentals.

United completed its $4.2 billion buyout of RSC on Monday.

Flannery previously spent seven years with McClinch Equipment Corp., which United acquired in 1998. For a decade after, he has held management positions with United Rentals at the branch, district, regional and national levels, including senior vice president for operations.
