Kevin Smith

• Established strong relationships with vendors, negotiating contracts for optimal pricing and delivery terms.
• Introduced preventative maintenance programs that extended equipment life cycles and minimized costly repairs or replacements.

• Developed high-performing teams by providing mentorship, guidance, and opportunities for professional growth. I was a Mentor for 13 years. I trained all North Jersey's Building Service Director. Five of those employees are currently part of the Mira Vie portfolio. I was also a Senior Director for 3 of those years. Overseeing 7 properties in NJ and 2 in NY.
• Enhanced team collaboration through regular communication, goal setting, and performance evaluations. Conducted interviews for hiring of Building Service Directors in multiple communities. In this role, I worked with the Executive Directors in the writing of the performance evaluations.

I have added this one to show that I am loyal to the companies I work for. I started for this company shortly after college did not work out for me. Starting as a helper and working my way to a foreman during my time there. As a foreman I read blue prints and layouts for new construction. Including Mira Vie at Brookfield where I have been since.

I enjoy longevity with companies that have a good culture. Since High school I have only worked for two companies. In the transition between Chelsea and Gallaghers I did not take time off. I ended my employment with Gallagher's on a Friday and started with Chelsea on Monday.
