About the Role

The Company is in search of a transformational Chief Executive Officer to spearhead its fast-scaling retail and food & beverage roll-up platform. The successful candidate will be tasked with building a high-performing organization capable of acquiring, integrating, and scaling multiple brands across a multi-state footprint. This pivotal role demands a leader who can thrive in complexity, move with urgency, and unify fragmented businesses into an efficient, profitable platform. Key responsibilities for the CEO include strategic leadership, M&A integration, operational excellence, talent and culture development, financial management, and driving growth and expansion. Applicants for the CEO position at the company should have a minimum of 15 years' multi-unit leadership experience in relevant sectors, with a strong preference for those who have scaled from multi-unit to multi-brand environments. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of partnering with private equity to accelerate growth, improve unit economics, and execute multi-brand consolidation strategies. Deep operational expertise, strong financial acumen, and exceptional leadership skills are essential. The role requires a leader who can build and develop a top-tier executive team, establish a high-performance culture, and ensure the company's brands maintain distinct identities while benefiting from shared infrastructure. Success in this role will be measured by the creation of a unified, scalable platform, increased profitability, and a culture of accountability and operational excellence.
