About the role

Area Manager - Aggregates - KentuckyCMC Partners has recently partnered with a well-established, growing construction materials organisation that is seeking an experienced Area Manager to lead its aggregates operations in the Kentucky region. This is a senior operational leadership role with responsibility for a multi-site limestone business producing millions of tons a year. The business is vertically integrated, with aggregates, asphalt and construction working side by side, and it offers a clear route into senior leadership for those who perform.
