About Barry Strauss

Barry Strauss is Senior Vice President at DFI and prior to 2012 was Chief Financial Officer. His current responsibilities are wide ranging including exploring international expansion of DFI’s services, senior lead on legal matters, managing DFI’s real estate and overseeing finance & administration. Barry’s career originated as an accountant with a Canadian Chartered Accounting firm and then progressed to various levels of senior finance and accounting positions in mining, construction, steel fabrication, oilfield transportation and heavy equipment. For the next eleven years Barry ignited his entrepreneurial spirit by operating his own boutique consulting business offering a wide scope of management and financial consulting services to small and medium sized companies. One of his first clients was DFI who initially had only 20 employees. After DFI experienced significant growth, coupled with Barry’s keen interest and involvement in DFI’s internally developed innovative steel foundation technologies and services, it was a perfect progression for Barry to join DFI full time as Chief Financial Officer. Barry’s passion is being immersed in playing a senior role with successfully growing innovative businesses such as DFI.
