As the Director of Flooring Sales, your primary objective is to take direct authority over company-wide flooring sales performance, job-site readiness, install execution, and custom inventory discipline. You are responsible for driving category growth, safeguarding account margins, and leading flooring sales field teams. Reporting directly to VP of Sales, you ensure our commitment to the builder is executed flawlessly on the job site while removing category burdens from location LBM Sales Managers.

• Custom Inventory Control: Enforce adherence to 45-, 75-, and 90-day custom flooring inventory aging reports to protect cash flow.
• Team Scaling & Training Camps: Establish onboarding pathways and execute annual 8-week Flooring Training Camps to support projected 50%+ category growth.
• Scalable Regional Modeling: Build standard operating procedures allowing branch teams to handle doubled flooring volume without expanding administrative headcount, paving the way for future North/South split model.
