$40 per hour

New Talent

DEAL BREAKER: Experience only from Construction, Skilled Trades, & Home Services.

  • Base Wage & Bonus worth about $400-700K+. Will vary based on experience, but additionally, there will be Profit Sharing, Equity, Relocation Assistance, & anything else you need (but it all is based on your level of experience and your situation).

  • Operated with real P&L ownership
Energized by
  • Freedom to build the team and strategy your way
  • A compensation structure designed for hungry CEOs
  • Scaling and driving multi-market expansion
  • Leading leaders, not managing tasks

You may be coming from a larger platform and want the chance to build again —with more autonomy, more upside, and a clearer runway.

INDUSTRY

  • This is a growth mandate with teeth
  • If you understand how to scale , you can learn what we do quickly .
