Charles Vasalos Email & Phone Number

Experienced General Manager with a demonstrated successful history of working in the environmental services industry, both private and public. Skilled in Budgeting, Waste, Operations, Sales, and Transportation Management, Facility Management (FM), Safety (Federal DOT, OSHA, and industry standards), and Team Building.My career highlights include: proven leadership and success in transforming underperforming hauling companies and municipal programs into profitable, efficient, and safe operations. I led the Village of Skokie's program through the pandemic, making employee exposure mitigation a priority while never allowing service and safety expectations to waiver. At Veolia ES in Waukegan, IL, I led an operation struggling with safe operation, service, and profitability to one that was ranked 4th best in the company for safety and earning over 10% as a business. At LRS in Morton Grove, I acted as interim General Manager and led an operations team that served over 10 North Shore Chicago communities while transforming a grossly underperforming site in all facets of operations into one that prioritized operating safely, providing stellar service, and emphasized appropriate union labor-management relationships. I have multiple residential and commercial franchise launches under my belt. They were deemed some of the most successful and adopted as standard practice for future projects. I have managed budgets of over $20M and have extensive experience in creating and managing safety programs regarding FMCSA, OSHA, and industry standard programs.

Listed skills include Waste Management, Supervisory Skills, Recycling, Employee Relations, and 12 others.
