A bit about us:

We're a private equity-backed mechanical services platform delivering HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and piping solutions to commercial, industrial, and residential customers across the Midwest. Built by uniting a group of respected, locally rooted trade companies under one platform, we pair decades of field experience and trusted local brands with the capital, systems, and scale of a larger organization. We've grown rapidly through acquisitions and continue to expand, with a clear mission: to help good local businesses become great while keeping the people, craftsmanship, and customer relationships that made them successful. Safety, quality, and integrity sit at the center of how we operate.

Why join us?

  • Build the playbook: define how operations run across the entire platform — rare greenfield ownership, not maintaining someone else's system
  • CEO-level visibility: report directly to the CEO with a true enterprise-wide mandate
  • Real impact, fast: the business is still being shaped, so your work moves the needle immediately
  • Growth story: a well-capitalized, acquisitive platform with significant runway ahead
  • Career upside: a consciously senior seat with a path toward broader executive scope over time
  • Flexibility: remote-based role across a Midwest footprint

Job Details

This is the senior operations leader for the entire platform — the operational expert who goes into our divisions, determines what's really happening, gets to root cause, and works directly with local leaders to resolve issues and raise performance. You'll spend your first months getting deep into the business and identifying where we can be even better, then drive the changes that get us there.

What You'll Do
  • Serve as the go-to operations leader across all divisions, partnering with division and operating-company leaders
  • Diagnose operational challenges, identify root causes, and lead practical, lasting fixes
  • Prioritize the divisions and locations with the greatest opportunity for improvement
  • Standardize and strengthen operating processes across a multi-site footprint
  • Bring structure and operational discipline to recently acquired businesses
  • Operate strategically while staying hands-on and close to the field

What You'll Bring
  • Extensive multi-site operations leadership in HVAC, mechanical, MEP, or skilled-trades/field-services businesses
  • A proven record of diagnosing underperforming operations and turning them around
  • Experience integrating and standardizing acquired or multi-location businesses
  • Comfort operating in a fast-moving, private equity-backed, high-growth environment
  • Strong cross-functional leadership and the ability to influence operators without direct authority
  • Willingness to travel ~50%; must reside in the Midwest
