• People leadership: Scheduling, hiring, coaching, and leading union and non-union teams, including real experience in labour relations.
• Sales and customers: The full sales cycle, from first quote to final delivery, and building lasting relationships with contractors, builders, and developers.
• Business strategy: Budgets, margins, market positioning, and action plans that grow sales and market share.

• Strong organization and the ability to juggle multiple priorities
• Comfort with the Microsoft suite
