Wholesale building materials distributor Blue Linx has lured away ServiceMaster legal chief Tricia Kinney to serve as its chief legal officer.

The company recently underwent an executive shake-up that saw the sudden exit of CEO Dwight Gibson in March. Blue Linx disclosed that Gibson had left the company and vacated his board seat in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing, saying only that his departure would be treated as termination without cause. Gibson was paid a little more than $1.5 million in severance, according to the filing.
