Want to work for a growing, family-oriented company and help take them to the next level?
The Operations Manager position is a new role for the company, so this is an excellent opportunity to advance your career. You will join an established family-owned Commercial Roofing Contractor as they plan to expand whilst taking advantage of their existing book of business.
Reporting directly to the President, you will take control of day-to-day roofing operations to enable him to focus more on company growth. It is expected that you will take on more responsibilities as you grow into the role, eventually having full authority over roofing production.

The President has a Marine Corps background and, although he doesn't run the company with a strict military discipline, the company upholds a culture of integrity, discipline, emotional intelligence and respect.

You will:
Bring order and clarity to the production cycle
Standardize and track time/hours accurately
Manage budgets vs. actual hours: pre-job setup and post-job wrap-up
Reduce ‘noise' in the business
Mentor junior personnel
Bring leadership, structure, and calm to the field

Manage all roofing production operations
Daily coordination of field teams
Oversight of scheduling, project startup, and project closeout
Implementation and enforcement of tracking systems
Coordinate between field teams, sales, estimating, HR, and office staff
Attend weekly Production and Scheduling meetings
Preferred Candidate:
You are probably an Operations Manager within commercial roofing. You will certainly have prior senior managerial experience. If you have come up through the ranks this would be great, but this is not required.
You have previous experience in service and re-roofing, particularly with TPO systems
You possess ‘emotional intelligence' and people skills, rather than a rigid approach. You inspire trust and respect from your team.
You are comfortable running multiple projects simultaneously, whilst keeping a tight reign on each one.
