President, Gypsum Mining Operations

Las Vegas, Nevada | Full-Time | Reports to Ownership / Executive Leadership

The Opportunity

We’re hiring a President to serve as the senior executive leader of our gypsum and sand operations. This is a strategic leadership role for someone who can own the business at the P&L level and expand our market reach — winning new customer accounts and growing our presence in existing end markets (wallboard, cement, brick pavers, sand, agriculture). Our site’s Mining Manager owns day-to-day safety and regulatory compliance, so you’ll be focused on business strategy, commercial growth, and overall performance. You’ll have full authority over budget and strategic direction for the business, reporting directly to ownership/executive leadership.

What You’ll Do

• Serve as the senior executive accountable for the overall performance and strategic direction of the gypsum operation.
• Own full P&L responsibility, including budget and capital planning, reporting results and strategy directly to ownership/executive leadership.
• Set and drive the strategy to expand market reach — new customer accounts, new geographies, and deeper penetration of existing end markets.
• Partner with the site’s Mining Manager, who owns day-to-day safety and MSHA/regulatory compliance, to ensure operating plans support the business’s growth strategy.
• Build and lead the commercial function: pricing strategy, contract negotiation, and key account management.
• Represent the business to customers, ownership, and industry partners as its senior executive.
• Recruit, develop, and lead a leadership team spanning commercial/sales and support functions.

What We’re Looking ForRequired

• 8+ years of progressive leadership experience in mining, aggregates, or industrial materials, including senior executive experience (VP, General Manager, or President) with full P&L ownership.
• Demonstrated success growing revenue and market reach in a materials, industrial, or B2B environment.
• Strong financial and commercial acumen, with a track record of owning a P&L and presenting strategy and results to ownership or a board.
• Strong executive leadership skills, with experience building and leading cross-functional teams.
• Experience partnering with operational/technical leaders (e.g., a Mining Manager or plant leadership) without directly owning safety or compliance functions.

Preferred

• Experience specifically in the gypsum, aggregate, or industrial minerals industry is also preferred.
• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Mining, or a related field; MBA or equivalent business training a plus, preferably from a University with a dedicated Mining Program.
• Experience operating in a privately held or ownership-led company structure.
