Do it Best announced Jean Fahy will be assuming the role of LBM division manager of business development, effective July 1. In the new role, Fahy will be focused on executing LBM recruitment initiatives while expanding the company’s engagement with existing LBM members, according to Do it Best.
“Do it Best is committed to growing our business with existing members while attracting new members into the Do it Best family,” vice president of LBM Russ Kathrein said in a prepared statement. “Jean’s previous field sales leadership experience as well as her tremendous passion for our LBM members, makes her uniquely qualified to lead our LBM growth efforts.”
Fahy will focus on expanding Do it Best LBM operations across the United States and overseeing regional LBM offices in the west and midwest, according to the organization. Most recently, Fahy served as the LBM division manager of building materials.
“My greatest passion is serving our members and helping them grow,” Fahy said. “This new position allows us to build for our LBM members’ current and future needs while bringing on even more great additions into the Do it Best family.”
Do it Best said Fahy will split time between the company’s Fort Wayne, Ind., headquarters and its Woodburn, Ore., regional office, recruiting and training additional traders and specialists needed to service the planned member and sales growth.
