Mr. Jackson has served in a variety of leadership positions with established and successful modular housing facilities throughout the United States.

A graduate of Ball State University with a degree in accounting, Mr. Jackson started his career with industry leader All American Homes where he began as finance manager for the Indiana Division of the firm, and quickly rose within the company to the positions of Division Controller, General Sales Manager and ultimately Vice President/General Manager.

As a successful manager of All American Homes’ Indiana Division, in 1994 Mr. Jackson was selected to lead the company’s Iowa division in Dyersville, Iowa. Mr. Jackson directed and supervised all aspects of the company and guided it into becoming an extremely efficient, quality producing and profitable manufacturing operation.

Following the successful work at the Iowa division and after returning to Indiana to lead the largest modular housing manufacturing operation in the country, Mr. Jackson’s talents were again tapped to complete the company’s start-up phase in Tennessee. Then again in 1997, he was requested to apply his industry knowledge and experience to construct and start-up another All American facility in Zanesville, Ohio.

In 1999, Mr. Jackson left All American Homes to become President and Chief Operating Officer of Pinnacle Building Systems in Bristol, Indiana. During his tenure with Pinnacle, Mr. Jackson was directly involved in implementing Just-In-Time processes with material vendors; detailed custom modular designing for homeowners; and, construction and product quality initiatives for the modular housing manufacturing process.

Unity Homes is fortunate to have in Mr. Jackson experience in the best practices within the entire scope of the modular home industry, vision to drive new innovations that can implement market changes, and the ability to maintain and improve product quality and overall company performance.
