BlueLinx Holdings appointed Tricia Kinney to the role of general counsel and corporate secretary, effective July 31. Kinney will report to BlueLinx president and CEO Shyam Reddy.
“Tricia is a strong addition to our management team, and I’m excited to welcome her onboard,” Reddy said in a prepared statement. “She brings a highly strategic perspective to complex legal, business, and financial initiatives, and has ample management experience in advancing legal and business imperatives across organizations. Her track record of success in new and developed markets will be invaluable to BlueLinx as we continue our focus on growing our high-value specialty product categories, and driving operational, pricing, and procurement excellence.”
The new general counsel has more than 20 years of experience in corporate and litigation roles, most recently serving as the chief legal and compliance officer for ServiceMaster Brands. Kinney has also held senior level roles with Kimberly-Clark Corporation.
“I look forward to working closely with Shyam and the leadership team to cement a strong legal and operational foundation that advances BlueLinx’s position as the leading wholesale building products distributor across North America,” Kinney said.
Marietta, Ga.-based BlueLinx distributes across 50 states to approximately 15,000 customers, including national home centers, pro dealers, cooperatives, specialty distributors, and regional and local dealers.
