LYNCHBURG, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov 6, 2025--

BWX Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BWXT) announced today that Toby Smith has been named senior vice president and general counsel. Smith will serve as the organization’s chief legal advisor, overseeing all legal, regulatory and compliance matters across the enterprise. He replaces Ronald (Chip) Whitford, who is anticipated to remain in an advisory capacity with BWXT until early 2026.

Smith has more than 20 years of experience in law, including in-house counsel for the former United Technologies Corporation (now RTX Corporation) and Otis Worldwide Corporation, as well as outside litigation counsel.

“Toby’s broad and global experience will serve BWXT well as we continue to invest for growth and expand our capabilities and geographic footprint,” said Rex Geveden, president and chief executive officer. “His background consistently demonstrates a penchant for continuous improvement and drive for results, which are cornerstones for the cultural change we are driving at BWXT.”

Most recently, as senior vice president and corporate secretary at Otis, Smith oversaw compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission and New York Stock Exchange regulations, managed all aspects of corporate governance, and led the company’s corporate sustainability and internal audit functions. Prior to his role at Otis, Smith served in senior legal roles within the former United Technologies Corporation in international trade compliance and as division general counsel. He joined United Technologies after spending six years as a litigation associate for Hogan & Hartson, LLP.

“I would also like to thank Chip for his many contributions to the organization over his eight years with us and look forward to working with him through this transition,” continued Geveden.
