Jacob has been with the company since 2006. He received a bachelor’s degree in business management from Kent State University and worked extensively in that region as an outside salesperson while still in college. During that time, he was able to get a full scope of how the business works, including international business within the European market. After college, he started in the warehouse and worked his way up to national sales manager where he worked with distributors, contractors and specifiers. In 2022, he was elected to the board of directors. In his current role, Jacob is responsible for product development, sales growth, customer retention and portfolio management.
Outside of work, Jacob is a volunteer firefighter and EMT. In his spare time, he enjoys time outdoors, drag racing motorcycles and traveling the world.
Reflecting on 2014 causes me to send you a quick note to compliment you and all the personnel at Marathon Products for doing such a great job. So many times we needed a product quickly to satisfy our customers’ needs and so many times you responded with the necessary product and service to keep everybody’s wheels turning. You always have the inventory to service our orders.
There are 3 things that I appreciate most about Marathon Roofing Products, your inventory, your willingness to develop and introduce new products and especially the people there that “make it happen”. I look forward to an ongoing relationship with the Cislo family and Marathon Roofing Products.
