• Build strong relationships with customers, suppliers, and the local community
• Collaborate with ownership and senior leadership on pricing, forecasting, and long-term planning
• Align sales goals with the company’s mission—where financial success supports, not overshadows, core values

WHO YOU ARE

• Experienced in building materials sales—both inside and outside
• A warm, servant-minded leader who builds trust and inspires performance
• Strategic and steady—able to balance urgency with thoughtful execution
• Ideally familiar with the local market and its values
