Kodiak Building Partners announced today that Christensen Lumber’s Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Tim Ferguson, has been promoted to President of Christensen Lumber following Tom Christensen’s transition to Chairman.
“Kodiak believes Tim is the ideal President to lead Christensen’s next chapter of growth and success,” said Mike Flood, Executive Vice President of Operations at Kodiak Building Partners. “We have all been impressed by his strong track record of innovation, execution, operational excellence, and developing teams that drive results. Tim consistently delivers high growth during rapid periods of industry disruption, consumer change, and industry advancement. He is a terrific leader, and we’re excited about his and Christensen’s futures.”
Ferguson started his career at Christensen in 1994 after graduating from Morningside College in Iowa with degrees in marketing and advertising. As the son of a carpenter and longtime Christensen customer, Ferguson learned carpentry skills at an early age and was a prime candidate for Christensen’s opening in the lumberyard and sales counter.
After working at the sales counter for a year, Ferguson moved to the back counter and was later promoted to outside sales, where he remained until 2007 when he was promoted again to Sales Manager by Tom Christensen.
