At BYLTup, we're more than just a roofing and solar provider; we're a company committed to fostering growth from within. Whether you’re a seasoned roofer or someone looking for a fresh start in the construction industry, BYLTup offers a path that not only nurtures your skills, but also positions you for long-term success. Our strategic growth in Long Beach, Los Angeles, and Coachella Valley means we’re always on the lookout for motivated individuals ready to take their careers to the next level.
Investing in Our People: Training for Success
Our philosophy at BYLTup is simple: we invest heavily in our employees. Training is not just a one-time event here, it’s an ongoing process designed to ensure every team member is equipped to deliver top-tier service. From shingle training to open-flame torch training, and single-ply training in materials like PVC and TPO, we hold regular training sessions every few months for our roofing installation crews and ongoing in-house sales training for our project managers. This rigorous training cycle applies to everyone—whether you've been in the field for a month or a decade. We believe that continual learning helps prevent bad habits from forming and keeps us at the forefront of quality and workmanship.
Our commitment to training goes beyond just meeting industry requirements; it's about empowering our team to excel in their position and craft. For example, our partnerships with industry leaders like GAF and IB Roof Systems ensure that our employees are always up to date with the latest technical specs and warranty requirements. This not only helps us deliver reliable roofing solutions, but also positions our employees as knowledgeable experts in their field.
“This business, maybe more than some other industries, is all about our people,” states BYLTup CEO, Trevor Leeds. “From sales, to operational support, to a quality installation in the field, our customers' entire experience not only depends on sound processes, but well trained and highly motivated employees. Without excited and motivated team members who have a career path and believe in the company’s vision, we’re just another roofer on a Google page who’s plugging a job role.”
Promoting from Within: Real Success Stories at BYLTup
At BYLTup, we believe in nurturing talent from within, and our team members' journeys are a testament to the career growth opportunities we offer. We’re proud to highlight real success stories of team members who have climbed the ranks within our young company.
Take Dom Thornton, for example. His story with BYLTup began when he transitioned from a different industry, having previously worked with our CEO. Despite having no construction experience, Trevor saw potential in Dom and hired him as a production assistant. From there, Dom quickly advanced to assistant production manager and then to production manager. When Jose Navarro joined the team and proved to be a perfect fit for the production management position, Dom transitioned into a project management (sales) role. In less than two years, Dom has excelled in his project management role and is on path to elevate into a regional project management role in the near future. Dom is now beginning to learn how to train and manage new project managers in the company and continues to expand his role and influence within BYLTup’s growth strategy.
Jose Navarro’s Path: On the operational side, Jose is following a similar path of growth. After attending a GAF commercial Roofing Academy training, Jose was hired into BYLTup and stepped into our production manager role, where he has quickly made an impact. So much so that Jose is now being positioned for a mid-management role in operations and has already taken on the responsibility of training two new hires in the production side, Alec Hurst and Andrew Gomez, both new hires with no prior roofing experience. Under Jose’s guidance, Alec and Andrew are learning the ropes, supporting our installation crews in the field, coordinating with our various suppliers and becoming experts in the roofing trade.
Erica Foley's Leadership and Success: Erica's journey is another shining example of how BYLTup values hard work and dedication to the company. Erica came into BYLTup as our first hire and with previous roofing administration experience. She has consistently proven her worth to the company with every single client and contract being touched by Erica in some form or fashion. Erica is not only training additional admin technicians, but she also has complete oversight of all of our administrative and accounting functions. Her contributions have not gone unnoticed—she has now earned equity in the company as a partner and continues to grow her role and career within BYLTup.
At BYLTup, we don't just fill positions; we hire great people and build careers. Whether you're starting with no experience, like Dom, Alec and Andrew, or moving into new roles, with new responsibilities like Erica, the opportunities for both personal and career growth within our company are endless. We believe in investing in our people, providing continuous training and promoting from within, ensuring that our team is always prepared to lead and succeed within the roofing, solar and greater construction industry.
