MMC Land Management has promoted Jim Salva as director of maintenance across all three branch locations.
Salva, originally from Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania, started at MMC Land Management as a crew member in 2007 with no landscaping background.
Once he mastered mowing, Salva began driving a truck and supervising a crew of his own. From there he had risen into the production manager role, followed by the operations manager role, and eventually transitioned into an account manager. His most recent title was Gibsonia branch maintenance manager, where he led the branch’s landscape maintenance and snow removal divisions.
In his new position, Salva will oversee MMC’s three maintenance branches which produce over $10 million in revenue and employ 94 team members.
“Jim is one of those people who you can always depend on," says Co-owner Mark Platt. "Whether it’s mid-spring and the grass is growing like crazy or it’s Christmas morning and a blizzard is rolling through, he always has his finger on the pulse. You can bet that work will be completed timely and properly under his watch. There is no one else more deserving of this role and I could not be happier for him. I am looking forward to seeing how Jim will position our maintenance division for the future."
