Ideal Background

• 10+ years of operations leadership in construction, trades, or environmental services

• Experience serving both consumer and commercial markets, balancing high-volume homeowner jobs with longer-cycle commercial engagements

• Strong people management experience with a collaborative and motivational style

• Proven success managing field-based teams and multiple revenue-generating divisions

• Systems-minded, with fluency in KPI design, tracking, and operational accountability

• Working knowledge of AI tools or automation platforms to increase speed and efficiency

• Strong recruiting instincts and network—can identify and hire the right people
