Pros

Since I've joined Metal Shark, production has been thriving. The company benefits from a diverse customer base in the government, commercial and even recreational boat market. Internationally demand for military and commercial vessels has also increased significantly. Last but not least the addition of another shipyard is allowing the company to enter a new market for bigger military and commercial ships. We are aggressive and pursue every opportunity worldwide.

Cons

The company is suffering the typical issues of a fast growing company that is ramping up production, finding quality labor and maintaining the strict level of military grade quality they are known for. The management team is smart and creative enough to cure the growing pains.

Pros

As my first position within the shipbuilding industry, my efforts were valued and welcomed as an invaluable contribution to the company’s success. From the start, the whole team truly valued my years of experience from a long and successful military career and were open to new thoughts and ideas.

Cons

In general, shipbuilding is a highly competitive industry, particularly for a small business. The role was highly demanding and required, at times, a large investment of time to get things done right. Not necessarily a bad thing as I was provided all the decision making latitude to produce results, which is highly rewarding.
