Wes Hawley
Ibegan my career with Atmos Energy in 2002 as a meter reader in Metairie. After working in Metairie for 2 years, my wife and I moved to Raceland where
I would work in the Houma/Thibodaux area in the service department and performing line locates. During my time in Thibodaux, I became highly involved in Atmos Energy’s Louisiana Division Safety Team and would earn my Certified Occupational Safety Specialist certification from LSU. In 2010 I became a Safety Specialist for the Louisiana Division. In 2014 I was promoted to Operations Supervisor for the River Parishes area including our Thibodaux office. My area of responsibility would
include Meter Reading, Service and Damage Prevention.
In 2018 I was promoted to Operations Manager for the Eastern Region of the Louisiana Division (Jefferson Parish, St. Bernard, North Shore, Hammond, Prairieville, Thibodaux, and the River Parishes) responsible for Service and Compliance activities. During this time, I would complete my bachelor’s degree in Business Administration/ Marketing from Columbia Southern University. In August 2020 I was promoted to Vice President Marketing for the Louisiana Division where I office in Baton Rouge. My wife Tabatha and I, sons Cameron (11) and Conner (8) and our Boxer Beaux relocated from Westwego and now reside in Dutchtown where we are really enjoying the area. We love the outdoors and spend our free time camping, fishing, hunting, and following our children’s sporting or scouting activities. I joined the Louisiana 811 Board of Directors
in December of 2020 and look forward to serving in this capacity and making a difference in damage prevention for the state of Louisiana.
