TheJobWalk Thoughts:
This hire signals Fortis is trying to wrangle its regional offices into tighter formation as it scales past its home turf. Creating a president role aimed strictly at geographic markets usually means leadership wants better coordination between offices, more uniform pursuit strategies, and smoother handoffs with national accounts that touch multiple regions. It's less about growth for growth's sake and more about making sure the growth they've already locked in doesn't turn into a patchwork of disconnected branches.
