Market P&L & Reporting Own the Dallas market P&L – revenue, gross margin, technician cost, and operating performance. Report weekly on utilization rates, SLA attainment, revenue ramp, and open demand pipeline to the BU Leader. Identify and escalat[e] market‑level blockers (tech capacity, parts supply, customer churn risk) proactively. Support market expansion decisions by providing ground‑level insight on demand density, local competition, and technician pipeline. Team Building & Development Hire, onboard, and develop additional W2 technicians as demand scales in the Dallas market.

Bachelor’s degree preferred; equivalent experience in trade management or field service leadership accepted.

This is a market‑based role requiring full‑time, on‑the‑ground presence in the Dallas, Texas metro area. Field‑based work is the norm: expect regular time in customer locations, in the van alongside techs, and at the branch office. Local travel within the Dallas market is daily; periodic travel to other VixxoCafé markets or HQ for training and planning may be required.
