Elevated Role Brings Extensive Preconstruction Experience to the Forefront

L.E.B.S. Electric is pleased to announce the promotion of Ian Crom to Vice President.

 “I’m incredibly ecstatic and humbled to be promoted to Vice President of L.E.B.S. Electric and given this opportunity to take on an even greater role within the company,” said Crom. “I’m excited to use my experience to help strengthen our preconstruction process, support our team and continue delivering value to our clients. I’m especially excited about what the future holds and what we can accomplish together as we continue to grow and support businesses and communities across Florida.”
