YOU BRING THE FOLLOWING

Your project management background allows you to problem solve, meet client demands and be adaptable. You are detail oriented and highly organized.

Strong product and technical knowledge, including applicable building codes, correct product application, custom applications and pricing, price estimating, and solicitation, electricity, and cabling would lend to the success of this role. A strong understanding of relationship management, project management and solid administrative skills are going to be key to the success of this role.
