TUFF SHED Opportunity to Advance
Many TUFF SHED employees began their career with the Company in a different capacity. It is a point of pride that TUFF SHED is a great place to launch a career, not just hold down a job.
Examples of how TUFF SHED has created career opportunities include
- Using his own entrepreneurial spirit, Tom Saurey has given individuals the chance to run stores and regions, and be responsible for their own business decisions and profit and loss ledgers, helping to create additional entrepreneurs within the TUFF SHED family. Two of TUFF SHED's five Regional Managers began with the company in sales or construction, and many of TUFF SHED factory managers served as TUFF SHED builders and/or sales consultants prior to managing a factory store. This experience has not only given those individuals the chance to run a business, it has also allowed TUFF SHED to home grow its talent, and ensure that the factory managers understand exactly what it takes to provide quality customer service, motivate staff and produce high quality buildings.
- At the corporate office, a former store manager is the Chief Operations Officer, former builders direct our Field Operations and run the Engineering Department, and former administrative staff members are now working in Human Resources and Purchasing Departments.
- Our manager trainee program has allowed TUFF SHED to keep up with its rapid expansion, with new managers now getting hands on experience with managerial decisions prior to running their own factory store.
