Merle started his career with Foley Incorporated in 1987. He started as a marketing trainee, moved into sales as a parts and service sales representative, and was later promoted to account manager in machinery sales.

In 2000, he took on the role of used equipment manager of Construction Machinery, and was promoted to general line sales manager in 2001.

In 2003, Merle advanced to his most recent position of general sales manager, Machinery Sales. In this position, he was responsible for the entire Construction Division Machinery Field Sales Force as well as internal operations.
