We are seeking an energetic, high performing, values-driven yet bottom-line focused General Manager to lead a multi-entity HVAC and Plumbing company through its next phase of growth.

This role is ideal for a hands-on operator who believes in building a great company and who leads with integrity, energy and a deep commitment to doing what’s right. You’ll be entrusted with honoring the legacies of our partner companies, growing teams and delivering exceptional service to our customers and communities.

You will need to be versatile, tactful, smart, humble and hardworking. In one day you could be acting as a Service Manager part of the morning and in the afternoon communicating with the Board of Directors (while tackling 11teen different initiatives and KPI's).

Key Responsibilities of This Role Are Broken Down As:

Leadership & Culture

  • Embody and promote our core values.
  • Lead with humility, intensity and purpose, treating people the right way while building something meaningful.
  • Foster a culture of respect, accountability and high performance across all entities.
  • Serve as a steward of the company’s legacy, people and mission.
  • Integrate all entities and all future entities into one cohesive company with unique teams in each location.

Operations Management

  • Implement systems and processes that support scalable, efficient and customer-focused operations that also benefit the company and our employees financially.
  • Champion safety, compliance and continuous improvement.

  • Manage expenses by instilling a culture across all partners of “every dollar matters.”
  • Plan CapEx with Ownership and Board.
  • Manage resources and assets to maximize their usage and revenue. Dispose of unused or underutilized assets.

Customer & Community Engagement

  • Ensure every customer interaction reflects our commitment to service and integrity and doing what is right by our customers.
  • Build lasting relationships with clients, vendors, community partners and contractors to be their first in line resource for Plumbing and HVAC. Be a partner, not a vendor.
  • Scout out, strategize and lead initiatives that give back to the areas we serve.

Team Development

  • Recruit, develop and retain top talent who share our values and vision. Train them to be the best.
  • Create pathways for leadership and ownership within the organization and mentor those with the potential and aptitude to lead.
  • Invest in the staff with recognition, events and simple gestures to show that you care about them.

Strategic Growth

  • Identify and pursue opportunities for expansion, partnerships and innovation and present these to Ownership and the Board.
  • Dive into ownership initiatives, tuck-ins and bolt-ons and strategize with ownership and the Board on potential targets.
  • Lead with grit and vision. Monthly is important, quarterly is important as well, but long term value is the most important.
  • Represent the company in industry and community forums with authenticity and purpose.
  • Set us apart with professionalism. Do what no one else is doing to be what no one else is.

Qualifications:

  • 5 years of leadership experience in HVAC, Plumbing or related service industries. Commercial and Residential experience is preferred.
  • Proven ability to lead teams, manage operations and drive sustainable growth.
  • Strong financial and strategic acumen including a proven record of reporting and communicating numbers as a story.
  • Deep commitment to values-based leadership and customer service.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with a heart for serving people and community.

You'll maintain and office at one of our partner companies and visit the others on a weekly basis, integrating our corporate technology, accounting, processes, HR, benefits among all companies in a way that is painless and easy on the existing staff. All the while driving our growth, services and professionalism.
