S.M. Wilson promotes Ashley to field director

S.M. Wilson & Co. has promoted Mike Ashley to field director.

His promotion comes with a recent restructuring of S. M. Wilson’s Field Operations department. The field director position will replace the director of Field Operations to allow for more than one individual to provide direct support, oversight, and mentorship for the field aspects of projects from pre-construction to close-out including support of superintendents and tradespeople.

Ashley (shown) was brought into the department to assist former director of operations, Mike Zick.

Ashley and Zick will each assume the title of field director. They will each be assigned to specific clients and project teams. This will allow every team the benefit of a dedicated field director with the resources available to provide guidance and support.

Ashley joined S. M. Wilson in 2004 and has worked on a variety of projects including Ladue Schools, Link in the Loop, City Foundry STL and Clarendale St. Peters. He is OSHA 30 certified and has more than 40 years of experience in the construction industry.

S. M. Wilson is a full-service construction management, design/build and general contracting firm with headquarters in St. Louis.
