EIGHTY FOUR, PA. (December 6, 2022) – 84 Lumber, the nation’s largest privately held building materials supplier, is recruiting for five immediate openings in Geneva, NY, as it seeks to fill job openings across its enterprise. Job seekers can interview for open positions at a hiring event on Dec. 13, 2022, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the company’s Geneva location (1080 Routes 5 & 20, Geneva, NY 14456). The company employs more than 60 people across four stores in the region.

“At 84 Lumber, we promote from within. We continue to seek motivated, dedicated employees who want to build a career at our company,” said Phil Garuccio, divisional vice president at 84 Lumber. “We believe a wide variety of candidates can find a home with us and open doors for themselves – a person with no construction experience but a desire to learn, military veterans ready to open their next chapter, or someone simply ready to make a fresh start.”

Hiring event attendees will participate in job interviews and learn more about 84 Lumber’s company culture. Some attendees may receive a job offer on site.

Here is a look at open positions:

• Manager trainees (MTs) enter an intensive on-the-job training program that teaches them about the company’s business and puts them on a path to become a future leader within the enterprise. Starting compensation for manager trainees is $46,000 to $48,000 per year.
• Yard associates perform essential functions behind the scenes – from the management of supply shipments to the operation of forklifts and other equipment. No prior experience is necessary, and the starting salary is $18 per hour.
• Contractor sales representatives are responsible for selling lumber and building materials, scheduling deliveries, and growing an existing customer base through prospecting, sales development, quoting, and customer follow-up to ensure sales goals are met or exceeded. Compensation is based on experience.

“84 Lumber is proud to say that 95% of our store managers started in our manager trainee program,” Garuccio said. “Once they join our organization, we give every one of our employees the tools they need to have a successful career with us.”
