Our client is a family-owned building materials distributor with more than a century of history serving builders, remodelers, and contractors across Rhode Island and the broader New England region generating over $100M in annual revenue with more than 125 employees. The company has established a leading position in its market through deep customer relationships, specialized product expertise, and a service model centered on professional builders, remodelers, and contractors.
Ownership is investing in the next phase of growth, with initiatives focused on expanding market share, developing new business channels, and strengthening organizational leadership. The Vice President of Sales will play a central role in shaping that future.
The Opportunity
The Vice President of Sales will lead a commercial organization of outside sales representatives while carrying broad responsibility for revenue growth, customer development, talent management, and overall business performance.
The sales team is well-established, experienced, and highly connected to its customer base. The mandate is to elevate organizational capability through coaching, accountability, recruitment, leadership development, and commercial strategy while preserving the entrepreneurial spirit and customer focus that have driven the company’s success.
This leader will maintain direct relationships with the company’s most significant customers, develop future sales leaders, and partner closely with ownership on strategic growth initiatives. As the business continues to expand, the role will also shape the future structure of the commercial organization.
Success will be measured through profitable growth, stronger sales talent throughout the organization, increased customer penetration, and the development of a scalable sales leadership platform capable of supporting future expansion.
