The Opportunity
A well-established, multi-trade home services business (HVAC, plumbing, and electrical) is conducting a confidential search for a General Manager to lead its next chapter. The company operates across two locations, including a recent tuck-in acquisition, with continued M&A ambitions. Ownership remains actively engaged and will provide oversight and mentoring through the transition, but is seeking a hands-on operator to drive performance day to day.
What You'll Do
- Own full P&L responsibility for a $25M+ multi-trade operation
- Rebuild gross margin and operational discipline without sacrificing service quality or brand reputation
- Assess and strengthen the sales organization, including sales leadership
- Lead a management team through a change in operating style, from a culture-first approach to one balancing culture with results
- Partner with ownership on continued growth, including evaluating future tuck-in acquisitions
- Manage across multiple locations (or, for the right candidate, a strong single-site operator background will also be considered)
What We're Looking For
- Trades background strongly preferred (HVAC, plumbing, and/or electrical)
- A proven operator - someone who has led a turnaround or margin-recovery situation, not just steady-state growth
- Comfortable being the person who drives accountability and results, not only culture
- Experience building or scaling a sales function within a home services or similar operating business
- Track record managing a multi-location or franchise-style structure a plus
Compensation
- Base salary: up to $200K
- Bonus: 30–50% upside on goal achievement
- Equity participation available (structure to be discussed; historically ranging from $500K to seven figures)
- 401(k) and healthcare benefits
Location & Relocation
This is a national search. Relocation assistance is available for the right candidate to join an established market with strong quality of life.
This search is being conducted on a strictly confidential basis. Company details will be shared with shortlisted candidates directly.
