    • Build and manage a best-in-class subcontractor network across trades, fostering long-term relationships and ensuring consistent quality and accountability.
    • Implement and continuously improve standardized operational workflows across service lines, increasing predictability, quality, and scalability.
    • Champion site-level quality assurance, safety compliance, permitting, and inspection readiness.
    • Track and optimize performance across KPIs such as job cycle times, rework rates, gross margins, customer satisfaction, and more.
    • Partner cross-functionally with finance, sales, and executive leadership to forecast pipeline, plan capacity, and execute with financial discipline.
    • Lead and grow the internal operations team (including project managers, schedulers, and field supervisors), establishing a scalable organizational structure for future growth.

    Required Qualifications:

    • 7+ years of progressive experience in field operations leadership within residential construction, remodeling, or a closely related industry.
    • Proven success managing multiple projects concurrently using subcontractor delivery models.
    • Bachelor's degree in construction management, Business, Engineering, or a related field.
    • Deep understanding of job costing, budgeting, scheduling, and margin accountability.
    • Strong operational judgment with a builder's mindset and a customer-first approach.
    • Experience driving operational change and process improvements in a scaling environment.
    • Effective leadership skills with the ability to coach, motivate, and develop high-performing teams.

    What's in It for You:

    • Direct impact on the growth trajectory of a well-capitalized, high-growth company.
    • High visibility and influence at the executive level with opportunity for career advancement.
