Family member has fallen on hard times with this down economy. He was a commercial construction general contractor for 30+ years. He's had experience in executive and partnership positions, and ran his own contracting company for several years. I don't have to tell you that construction is way down, and it's nearly impossible for small companies to survive in current economic times.
He has experience:
*Management of multi-million dollar construction projects including commercial, industrial, and medical projects.
*Experience running companies (dealing with payroll, finding customers,etc)
*capable of meeting budgets and deadlines
*experience supervising subcontracting companies
*can of course read blue prints.
*has contacts in pretty much all facets of construction in Columbus and surrounding areas.
Construction has proven to be very unstable the last several years, I'm trying to talk him into looking into different fields. I could see his experience being useful in pretty much any management or supervisory role, or a position where he would be directing contractors. He is willing to re-locate.
PM me for further information, or if you have any leads.
