The Marshalltown Community School District (MCSD) is pleased to announce Todd Carl as the district’s next Facilities Director. Carl will officially begin his new role on July 1, 2025.
A lifelong resident of Marshalltown and a proud Marshalltown High School graduate, Carl brings over 30 years of leadership experience in plant operations and team management, most recently serving as General Manager at JBS USA in Marshalltown. In that role, he oversaw a workforce of 2,400 employees and led efforts that earned recognition for safety performance and production efficiency.
Carl’s professional journey began in 1989 at Swift & Company, now JBS USA, where he steadily progressed through supervisory and leadership roles. He is widely respected for fostering collaborative environments, championing continuous improvement, and building strong cross-functional teams.
“I am excited to begin this new chapter and look forward to the opportunity,” Carl said. “Being a lifelong resident of Marshalltown, it is very important to me to contribute and help the team grow, which is why it was an easy decision to accept this role and be a part of the Bobcat Team. I’m most excited about being part of a work environment that fosters collaboration and teamwork.”
In his new position, Carl’s top goal is to quickly understand his responsibilities, establish strong relationships, and set measurable short- and long-term goals to support the district’s success.
Carl is embracing the lead at MCSD by drawing on decades of experience managing complex operations.
“My 34 years of managing a very large business with many moving parts has given me the tools to actively engage as a leader, take ownership, and inspire others,” Carl said. “I’m looking forward to building relationships, seeking support when needed, celebrating successes, and leading by example.”
Outside of work, Carl enjoys golfing, traveling, and landscaping. He and his wife, Polly, have been married for 23 years and are proud parents to three children—Aaron, Jorge, and Mara—as well as grandparents to Sebastian.
