Construction services company BMC Stock Holdings has hired Lanesha Minnix as its next senior vice president and general counsel. She will join BMC on June 1 and will report to president and CEO Peter Alexander. According to the company, Minnix will succeed Paul Street, who plans to retire by the end of the year.

Minnix will join BMC from ABM Industries, where she most recently served as vice president, deputy general counsel and chief compliance officer, BMC says. Before her time with ABM, she held roles at Royal Dutch Shell/Shell Oil Company and Sprint, having begun her career at law firm K&L Gates.

An ABM spokesperson did not respond immediately to a request for comment.

According to BMC, it had $3.1 billion in 2016 net sales. It bills itself as a leading provider of diversified building products and services to professional builders and professional remodelers in the US residential housing market. It is based in Atlanta.

‘[Minnix’s] legal expertise and experience advising senior leaders will prove invaluable as we continue to implement our growth strategies with the objective to achieve higher levels of profitability,’ Alexander says in a statement. ‘With the US housing market off to a solid start in 2017, [she] is joining BMC at a very exciting time.’
