A Full-Time Building Construction

Chad Erndt

** * ******** **; Essexville, MI ***** 989-***-**** ******@*****.***

I believe I am an excellent candidate for this role, as I bring a wealth of knowledge of building construction and its operations from my days as a full-time contractor within the state of Michigan as well as the collaboration I have completed with the various other aspects of general contracting (plumbing, mechanical, and electrical).

Skills & Abilities

I worked for Hampton Township for 13 years as a full-time firefighter, and a part time fire fighter for Bay County for 20+ years. I have owned and operated my own construction business, CE Solutions Contracting LLC for the past 20+ years. Where I hire employees, schedule jobs, perform payroll, and perform estimates for the company. My company specializes in residential, as well as commercial. I am also the Fire Chief of the Bay County Tech Rescue team, where I lead a group of firefighters to ensure they are properly trained and can provide the appropriate amount of skills in the case those skills are needed during a situation in the county.

I am driven to succeed, therefore, thrive on the opportunity to encounter challenging situations that allow for implementation of new ideas. I am a very motivated and organized individual. . I have the ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously, possess excellent decision making skills, strong leadership skills, employee management, teamwork, training skills, collaboration, and innovation.
