Experience
National Retail Project Manager Us & Canada
May 2013 — Present
During my time with Benjamin Moore, I have been responsible for project management, space planning, operations, facilities oversight, and team performance across North America. I nurture relationships with Benjamin Moore retail store leadership teams and owners, assessing their design preferences and customer demographics to ensure the effective integration of their vision while still meeting Benjamin Moore brand standards. I also lead purchasing and procurement of display materials, lighting, exterior and interior signage, and other fixtures and furnishings, as well as negotiate design plans and contract terms. Achievements: Delivered thousands of retail installations/conversions across North America, including planning for new stores, coordinating for hardware outlets, and leading remodels, renovations, and relocations. Improved sales revenue by 20% within my first six months by updating exterior signage and revamping spaces. Consistently generated 20% YOY improvement in project contracts, which met or exceeded annual goals. Championed a culture of “form follows function” to ensure designs were both creative and operationally sound, aligned with customer needs, and blended aesthetic preferences with functional goals. Played a key role in crafting SOPs related to design, order, and installation processes, which improved consistency across the team and optimized service delivery quality.
