Superior Fence & Rail – Hartford

Base Salary: $80,000 – $100,000

Why This Role Exists

Superior Fence & Rail of Hartford is growing quickly and needs a hands-on operator to run daily execution. This role exists to bring discipline, structure, and accountability to field operations so installs run clean, crews are prepared, and customers are taken care of.

This is not an administrative coordinator role.
This is not a sit-behind-the-desk position.

This is a field-connected leadership role with real authority over people, schedules, materials, and results.

Role Summary

As Operations Mangerr, you will own day-to-day operations across production, installation, scheduling, warehouse readiness, subcontractors, and customer experience.

You will translate sales into executed work—on time, on budget, and to standard.

What You Will Own

• Day-to-day operational leadership of a high-volume construction / fencing operation
• Installation scheduling, job sequencing, and production flow
• Review of project scope for accuracy (BOMs, layouts, site conditions, permits, customer expectations)
• Permit documentation coordination and submission support
• Releasing jobs to production and overseeing readiness
• Warehouse management and material staging discipline
• Coordination between office staff, crews, and subcontractors
• Weekly sales / install meetings and operational communication
• Subcontractor management and performance accountability
• Enforcement of safety, quality, and productivity standards
• Tracking, analyzing, and improving KPIs (schedule adherence, rework, margins, customer satisfaction)
• Handling customer escalations professionally and decisively

If something breaks operationally, you own fixing it.

What Success Looks Like

• Crews leave the yard fully staged with the right materials
• Install schedules hold with minimal reschedules
• Subcontractors understand expectations and meet them
• Fewer callbacks and cleaner installs
• KPIs are reviewed weekly and acted on
• Customers feel informed, respected, and confident
• Ownership is no longer the operational bottleneck
