SageHome Inc. Appoints Joe Gorman as CEO Amidst Nationwide Expansion

SageHome Inc., the largest provider of aging-in-place bath remodeling services in the United States, has announced a significant leadership change that underscores its commitment to continued growth and operational excellence. Co-founder and CEO Brian Hutto has been appointed Vice Chairman of the SageHome board, allowing him to focus on other commercial commitments while still contributing his industry expertise and insights to the board and executive team.

Joe Gorman, also a co-founder and the Chief Operating Officer, has been promoted to Chief Executive Officer. Gorman brings a wealth of experience in leadership, strategy, and operations, having previously served as COO for Barnes & Noble and GNC, and held senior positions at Home Depot. His extensive experience and proven track record at SageHome make him the ideal candidate to guide the company through its next phase of growth.

Lee Hess, Chairman of SageHome, expressed his confidence in the leadership transition. "On behalf of everyone at SageHome, I would like to congratulate Joe on his new role. As a co-founder of SageHome, he was the obvious successor to Brian – their vision and goals for the business have been completely aligned from the very outset and Joe has played a pivotal role in SageHome's growth. We expect this transition to be seamless and that SageHome will continue on its successful growth trajectory. Additionally, I am particularly pleased to have Brian Hutto take on the critical role of Vice Chairman, where his strategic insights will be of greatest benefit to the company," he said.

Stuart Whiteford, Managing Director at Cairngorm Capital, which co-leads the investment in SageHome, also commended the leadership team. "We would like to thank Brian for his considerable contribution and dedication to SageHome during a period of intense growth. We extend our congratulations to Joe, who is a very worthy successor and who we are confident will lead SageHome with the same vision and commitment, ensuring the continued success and growth of the company. Thanks to their combined leadership, SageHome is in great shape and ready to take full advantage of the opportunities that await it," Whiteford stated.

Under the leadership of Hutto and Gorman, SageHome has achieved remarkable milestones since its inception. The company has expanded its presence from six states to 24, tripled its headcount, and quadrupled its revenue to $160 million. Joe Gorman attributed these achievements to the collective efforts of the entire team, emphasizing that the growth was accomplished without compromising the company's values or principles as an employer.
