  • Establish SMART goals via Work Compass for all direct reports; review progress monthly and conduct formal performance coaching as needed.
  • Foster a high-energy, success-oriented culture; celebrate wins and build morale.
  • Address performance gaps promptly and effectively through direct coaching and development.
  • Sales Execution & Client Engagement

  • Be directly involved in the sales process for "Must Win" opportunities and key accounts.
  • Actively network and build relationships with executives and influencers in the Architecture & Design, Commercial Real Estate, and General Contracting communities.
  • Ownership of association memberships including the Chamber of Commerce, NAIOP, CoreNet and other industry associations.
  • Partner closely with Storr's Design and Order Fulfillment teams to deliver complete, high-quality solutions.
