Description

What You'll Take Charge Of
  • Relaunching and scaling our Wisconsin operations with a clean slate and full support
  • Rebuilding key relationships and establishing a reputation for reliability, quality, and follow-through
  • Leading and developing a high-performing team of PMs, Sales, Supers, and Field Crews
  • Driving project execution, safety, quality, and profitability across all jobs
  • Building a strong subcontractor and vendor network that trusts and respects our name
  • Rolling up your sleeves when needed - because this role is about leadership and action

This isn't maintenance mode. This is market transformation.
What You Bring
  • 8-15+ years in construction leadership (commercial or industrial, -- your call, as long as you've built metal buildings)
  • A track record of taking ownership and delivering results
  • The ability to lead from the front and the back-strategic when needed, boots-on-the-ground when it matters
  • Strong financial instincts and the ability to read a job's health instantly
  • A reputation for being the person who gets things back on track - and keeps them there

Bonus points if you've launched a new region, division, or company before.
Why This Role Matters

We've had a year in the Fox Valley to learn the landscape. Now we're ready for a leader who can raise the bar and define our reputation moving forward. You'll be the leader who sets the new standard, builds confidence, and shows this market what we're truly capable of.

Your work will define our growth and long-term success in this region.
What We Offer
  • Competitive compensation with performance-driven upside
  • The freedom to build your team and your market your way
  • A leadership team that actually listens and removes roadblocks
  • The energy of a startup with the backing of an established 73-year-old company
  • A chance to create something lasting-and put your name on it
Ready to Lead a Market Reset?

If you're gritty, driven, and ready to elevate a market that's primed for a fresh start, we want to talk.
