Landscape Maintenance Operations Manager

Job Description

Job Description

Build Something. Lead People. Own the Outcome.

BraveView has partnered with a rapidly growing commercial landscape company to hire a Maintenance Operations Manager for a new and expanding branch. This is not a “plug into a system” role—this is a build, lead, and scale opportunity.

You'll step into a branch that already has an established client base, but needs a strong operational leader to build the team, refine processes, and drive performance.

This role is designed for someone who wants to grow professionally within a company that is taking marketshare.

Why This Role Stands Out

• New Branch = Real Impact – Help build operations from the ground up
• Clear Path for Professional Growth – Proven growth opportunity for the right leader
• Run the Business – Real input on staffing, scheduling, budgets, and execution
• Aspire-Driven Operation – Modern systems, data-driven decision making

What You'll Be Doing

Build & Lead the Operation

• Recruit, develop, and lead Field Managers and maintenance crews
• Establish structure, accountability, and performance standards
• Create a culture centered on quality, safety, and ownership

Own Scheduling & Execution

• Oversee daily and weekly routing to maximize efficiency
• Ensure all maintenance and enhancement work is completed on time and at a high level
• Lead property start-ups and ensure crews are set up for success
• Adjust operations based on weather, seasonality, and staffing

Manage the Business (P&L Mindset)

• Own labor, materials, and equipment budgets for the division
• Track and improve key metrics:
  • Gross margin
  • Labor efficiency
  • Overtime control
• Use Aspire to manage job costing, production, and workflows

Support Clients & Grow the Branch

• Building relationships and ensuring client satisfaction
• Partner with Sales to support enhancements and retention
• Help grow the branch through strong service delivery and client trust

Drive Safety & Standards

• Enforce company safety protocols and best practices
• Ensure crews, vehicles, and equipment are always job-ready

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years in commercial landscape operations or maintenance leadership
• Experience managing multiple crews and/or Field Managers
• Strong understanding of routing, scheduling, and production efficiency
• Experience with Aspire (or similar software) strongly preferred
• Proven ability to lead teams, solve problems, and drive accountability
• Comfortable in a player/coach role (operations + client interaction)
• Growth mindset with desire to step into a Branch Manager role

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive Base Salary + Bonus (based on performance)
• Company Vehicle + Gas Card
• Phone / Technology Package
• Health Benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision)
• PTO + Paid Holidays
• Growth & Development Opportunities

The Opportunity

This is a career-defining role for someone who wants more than just a job.

You'll be:

• Building teams
• Leading operations
• Managing clients
• Driving financial performance
• And positioning yourself to potentially run your own branch

If you've ever wanted to truly own a business unit, this is your shot.
