Chief Operating Officer • Level Homes
Two new projects breaking ground in south Alabama marked a milestone for Lance Faucheaux: Level Homes’ expansion plans were becoming real.
The executive has moved quickly himself, rising from project manager to COO within a few years. Along the way, he helped improve efficiency and profitability by connecting field execution with the company’s financial goals.
His work coordinates construction, sales, design and operations. Clearer processes for scheduling, homeowner walk-throughs and closings have strengthened communication and accountability, while more intentional floor plans and upgraded features support the effort to deliver quality homes at competitive prices.
Faucheaux invests in the people who will build the next generation of housing. He helped develop construction-related courses at LSU, bringing industry insight into classroom learning.
A leadership lesson I learned the hard way: “Communication has to be intentional, especially as a company grows. You can have hardworking people doing their best and still have things fall through the cracks when priorities or responsibilities aren’t clear.”
A question I ask a potential hire: “’What are you passionate about outside of work?’ It helps me understand what motivates them, what they value and who they are beyond their resume.”
