ABOUT THE JOB:

WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings Corporation (Nasdaq: WSC) was formed on July 1st 2020 through the merger of WillScot Corporation and Mobile Mini, Inc., creating the North American leader in temporary modular space and portable storage specialty leasing solutions. WillScot has been a leader in the North American modular space market for 60 years and went public in November 2017 via a reverse merger with a special purpose acquisition corporation. WillScot has since substantially consolidated the modular space market and recently solidified its leadership in the portable storage solutions market through its merger with Mobile Mini in July 2020. Mobile Mini is the largest provider of portable storage solutions in North America, which are a perfect complement to WillScot’s modular space solutions (approximately 40% customer overlap and 80% end-market overlap between the two companies).

On a combined basis, WillScot Mobile Mini generates approximately $1.7 billion of revenue and $0.7 billion of adjusted EBITDA annually and has over $6 billion of market capitalization.
