Overview

A privately held, multi-division field services company is seeking a hands-on, results-driven operations leader to oversee business performance, team management, and process improvement. This leadership role manages several key service lines in excavation, environmental remediation, fuel system services, and site contracting, with responsibility for a 25+ person team and dozens of concurrent projects each month.

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

• Familiarity with prevailing wage work and estimating public/private sector jobs

• 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

Who Will Succeed in This Role
