Senior Director of Operations
Renewal by Andersen
Renewal by Andersen, the extremely high growth direct-to-consumer replacement window subsidiary organization of Andersen Corporation, has experienced explosive growth and maturation over the last decade as it has become the largest vertically integrated remodeling company in its category. In 2022, Renewal by Andersen generated nearly $4 Billion in gross sales across its network of 100+ field locations throughout the United States and Canada.
Due to extensive, consistent growth over the last decade and specifically 40% growth over the last two years, Renewal has recently expanded their core manufacturing facility in Cottage Grove, MN now totaling 1.1 million square feet with additional manufacturing locations well underway in order to keep pace with consumer demand. The Senior Director of Operations, a core member of the Enterprise Operations Committee, will assume full accountability of the Cottage Grove location and be the only leader with full end-to-end value stream responsibility including manufacturing, supply chain, logistics, engineering, and maintenance. This person will be leading a relatively large and diverse team of over 1,500 associates including a team of roughly 8 direct reports, driving the evolution and maturation of Renewal's operational processes and overall business growth strategy.

Renewal by Andersen
Renewal by Andersen is the full service, direct-to-consumer window replacement division of Andersen Corporation, North America's largest and most reputable window and door manufacturer and brand. Renewal is the fastest-growing division of Andersen Corporation, with 20%+ year-over-year growth over nearly the last decade.
History
Andersen Corporation was founded in 1903 along the Saint Croix River in Minnesota by Hans Andersen and his family. In the mid 1990's, having established itself as a top brand in its category, Andersen saw an opportunity to introduce a custom replacement window division. Renewal by Andersen was born of this decision over 25 years ago as the vertically integrated, full-service, direct-to-consumer “replacement window” division of Andersen and has since grown tremendously, driving major bottom-line performance and extensive innovation across Andersen's enterprise.
Home Improvement
Renewal by Andersen, backed by one of the largest and most prominent voices in the greater building materials industry today, is now truly known as a benchmark in the overarching direct-to-consumer space across the US and into Canada given its increasingly innovative approach to, and major investments in, traditional, non-traditional, and digital marketing, its uncompromising devotion to creating unforgettable end-to-end Customer Experiences, and perhaps most importantly, its dedication to technology disruption. In an industry that is lacking in technological thought-leadership, Renewal is an absolute stand-out.
Scale
Renewal by Andersen is by far the largest full-service, vertically integrated remodeling company that exists in North America today. It drives nearly $4 Billion in gross sales across its 100+ branches in the US and into Canada. Most exciting is the fact that, while Renewal's top and bottom line performance is incredibly impressive, it is still relatively early in its evolution as an organization with immense marketshare and growth opportunities in front of it. The continued growth and scalability of Renewal by Andersen is being intensely invested in by the Andersen enterprise. After 3 recent expansions to Renewal's central production facility in MN, which now totals nearly 1 million square feet, production facility site number 2 has been selected with build-out beginning in 2023 in Locust Grove, GA, and production facility site number 3 has also been selected with build-out timing TBD.
