 Business Manager About Us For over 55 years Shelter Products has supplied lumber, plywood, and related building materials to large, wood framed construction projects. Our sales are supported by staff headquartered in key metropolitan areas throughout the U.S. We specialize in mill direct shipments at prices we guarantee for the duration of projects. Direct shipment enables us to supply the highest quality of materials at the most competitive prices. Understandably, mills offer their lowest prices when they can ship a single product on a rail car or truck. It takes more time to figure out how to load multiple products on a truck, and time is money. What that means for SPI is that we can only save our customers money if their projects are large enough that we can ship 60-70% of the order on straight trucks. Which is why the vast majority of our jobs are multi-family housing, assisted care living, military housing, hospitality, and campus housing. Our business is built on relationships - understanding our customers’ needs and helping them earn contract awards profitably. Over 90% of our orders are repeat business. With sales exceeding a half billion dollars annually, it’s fair to say we’ve earned our customers’ loyalty by outstanding service, quality, and competitive pricing. SPI is a privately held C-Corp with shares held by a clear majority of our employees, including the Board of Directors. Our share ownership creates a culture where all our shareholder/employees embrace the philosophy that our customers’ success is our business model. Position Summary The Business Manager will be the division president’s partner. They will analyze financial statements, review operational reports, and devise tools to refine measurements of success and enhance profitability. Division presidents will focus their efforts on securing business, managing backlogs, and covering open positions. The Business Manager will be responsible for all other aspects of the business. Put simply, Division presidents will be on offense, and Business Managers will keep score and be on defense. This will require Business Managers to lead teams with diverse skill sets to ensure we service our customers’ needs. The Business Manager will be a member of the senior leadership team and will assist in developing and executing long and short-term plans aligned with corporate business goals for profitability and growth. Essential Duties and Responsibilities: Partner with the Division President to execute the strategic plan in conformity with the company’s vision. Support the sales process through thoughtful review of contracts and financial analysis of trading results. Conduct financial reviews including working capital usage, prepare management reports, and evaluate financial and operational results. Prepare short- and long-range budgetary forecasts. Manage risk by thoroughly reviewing and revising contracts and monitoring unbought positions. Evaluate sales and purchasing performance. Monitor inventory management, warehousing, and purchasing. Administer and review inventory processes, programs, and controls to identify problems and suggest resolutions. Develop and monitor proactive reporting and metrics to identify, manage, and mitigate potential risks. Lead and manage the operations teams (trader assistants, project managers, traffic/logistics, etc.). Knowledge, Skills and Abilities: Bachelor’s degree with emphasis in Business, Finance or Accounting. Advanced degree is a plus. 10 years of related experience in Finance or Accounting. CPA not required, but is a plus. Related industry experience in wholesale, distribution, building materials, or construction a plus.
