Brooke Vogt, an accounting manager with Gilbane Building Co. in Milwaukee, specializes in project financial health and is responsible for educating her team to meet internal accounting needs.
“In nine years, Brooke has ascended from project accountant to accounting manager for Gilbane Milwaukee thanks to a dedication to the clients and the projects themselves,” said Dallas James, superintendent III at Gilbane. “An active member of local women in construction groups, Brooke advocates and tries to inspire young women to join the construction industry as often as possible.”
Vogt also participates in the Gilbane Rising Contractor program, which provides diverse and disadvantaged trade partners an opportunity to develop and broaden their industry skills and knowledge, while also gaining first-hand insight on working with Gilbane.
“Brooke helped our most recent local cohorts during a session dedicated to developing financial strength which focused on participants managing their cash flow management and an understanding of the financing resources that could help strengthen their business,” said James.
