In honor of International Women’s Day, Beacon (Nasdaq: BECN) announced today the launch of its second annual North American Female Roofing Professional of the Year contest, shining a spotlight on women in the roofing industry across the U.S. and Canada.

Nominations are welcome now through April 11 by visiting the contest website. Five finalists will be announced in May, and the public will have an opportunity to vote for their favorite finalists. Beacon will announce the winner and runners-up in June. The five winners will receive prize money to support further professional development such as attending the International Roofing Expo.
“From roof installers and office staff to sales managers and owners, women work hard to keep the roofing industry moving forward,” said Jonathan Bennett, Beacon’s Chief Commercial Officer. “Beacon recognizes that women are often underrepresented throughout our industry, and this contest is designed to recognize their significant contributions made on a daily basis. We hope the public will help us identify individuals who inspire others and help our communities.”
Last year’s winner, Stephanie Pouse, is a partner and co-founder at Brahma Roofing & Construction in Windsor, Colorado. Stephanie was honored for her leadership throughout her company, along with her work rehabilitating a local elementary school in Mexico and redeveloping an elementary school playground in Costa Rica to mitigate flooding.
“It was an honor to be recognized by Beacon and my local community for the inaugural award,” said Pouse. “I believe contests like this, showcasing the important role women play in our industry, will continue to highlight the vast opportunities available for women in the roofing space."
From March 8 through April 11, the public can nominate a female roofing professional on the contest website or by submitting an e-mail to FemaleRoofingContest@becn.com. Nominations must include why the nominee deserves to win the Female Roofing Professional of the Year contest as well as a short biography and photo.
