Position Overview

Reporting directly to the Executive Vice President of Strategy and Development, the Director of Strategy and Development will work with the two Division Presidents and other senior leaders to support SiteOne’s annual strategic planning efforts to identify the most critical focus areas for the next 1-3 years. Based on those focus areas, the Director works with business leaders to determine the optimal mix of tactics to advance and define that strategy. The Director of Strategy and Development heavily supports key organic growth initiatives (via research, planning and implementation) and is directly involved in all aspects of inorganic growth (i.e partnership development, business investment, mergers, and acquisitions).

Key Responsibilities Include

  • Partner with senior SiteOne leadership to identify potential acquisition candidates, select the best approach, and execute SiteOne’s M&A strategy.

  • Acquisition responsibilities include:
  • Analyzing division markets and opportunities
  • Leading acquisition-related financial analysis
  • Coordinating due diligence
  • Participating in negotiations with all parties
  • Overseeing the legal agreement process

  • In conjunction with regional operations and development leaders, develop and review proposals to management for funds allocation.
  • Develop and implement methods and procedures for monitoring assigned projects, such as preparation of records of expenditures, research findings and progress reports, and inform management of current status of each project.
  • Assist in long-term planning, including strategic planning, capacity analysis and acquisition planning.
  • Assist in analysis of new product and market ideas, and the development of growth strategies in existing or new business areas.
  • Support best-practice efforts across the organization to help improve processes, install new technology, and/or improve branch operations where applicable.
  • Plan and formulate aspects of research and development proposals such as the objective or purpose of major projects, applications that can be utilized from findings, costs of project, and equipment and human resource requirements at the direction of the executive team.
  • Review and analyze proposals submitted to determine if benefits derived and possible applications justify expenditures.
