    Job Description

    Director of Building Value

    Full-Time

     
    Building Value, an Easterseals Redwood social enterprise, is a leader in Cincinnati’s building materials reuse community. We create a triple- bottom- line impact: People, Planet, Profit, by preparing people who are under-represented in the construction trades for living-wage careers. We provide high-quality deconstruction and salvage services that keep reusable materials out of landfills. Salvaged, reclaimed, and donated building materials are resold through the Building Value Retail Store, extending our community impact while supporting the missions of Building Value and Easterseals Redwood.

    • Serve as the public face of Building Value with customers, partners, stakeholders, donors, community leaders, industry associations and networking groups to build visibility and support growth opportunities.
    • Lead business development efforts with Business Development Manager to identify prospects, cultivate relationships, convert opportunities into revenue, and ensure strong customer follow-through.
    • Develop and execute annual budgets, sales strategies, and marketing plans aligned with revenue goals, mission impact, and operational priorities.
    • Partner with the Building Value Construction Training team to advance mission effectiveness
    • Participate as a member of the Easterseals Redwood Directors and Leadership Team.

    What We’re Looking For

    • Proven success leading an entrepreneurial business unit or social enterprise with multiple revenue streams while balancing business performance, mission impact, and long-term sustainability.
    • A leadership style grounded in accountability, collaboration, clear communication, and the ability to motivate and develop teams.
    • Sound judgment and decision-making skills, with the ability to balance mission, financial performance, and operational realities.
    • A hands-on, resourceful leader who brings grit, urgency, and follow-through to problem-solving and execution.
    • Comfortable working across varied settings, including job sites, offices, the retail store, and community environments.
