Josh Pertnoy began his career at Shapiro/Pertnoy Companies in inarguably one of the most unglamorous roles. Josh began by sweeping floors and working as a laborer during summer breaks. After returning from boarding school at the Dublin School in New Hampshire and attending college, Josh joined Shapiro/Pertnoy Companies full-time eight years ago.
His approach to learning the multi-dimensional world of high-end residential and commercial construction and development was both admirable and utilitarian. In order to learn core trades such as drywall, framing, roofing, and carpentry, Josh worked under a host of different subcontractors, learning the fundamentals of each discipline. He also credits his expedited learning curve to a valued company employee who took him under his wing and “taught him the ropes.”
Josh, a Florida licensed general contractor, oversees a full-time staff of nearly 15 construction personnel and multiple, simultaneous construction products. To date, his largest project is a 30,000 square foot ocean-front stunner. Six years in planning and four years in the construction process, this signature project sets the bar for quality, ultra- luxurious, commissioned residential real estate. In addition to his membership in the Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County, Josh also supports his favorite charities: the Dublin School, Temple Israel and the Jewish Community Center of the Palm Beaches with both time and money. A guitarist by passion, Josh Pertnoy enjoys music, fishing, travel and work. “I had a very fast learning curve in this business. The fact that I love what I do has a lot to do with that.”
