Operational Consultant - MEP Industry (Remote w/ Travel)

2+ years of operating & project leadership experience inside a trades-based business, home services company, or enterprise-level general contracting firms

Demonstrated ability to earn the trust of operators and field-based teams — you understand how trades businesses work and can have credible conversations with people who’ve been doing this for decades

Executional bias: you move fast, follow through, and don’t wait to be told what to do once a direction is set

Strong project management skills — you can manage multiple workstreams across multiple companies without losing track of what matters

Comfort with ambiguity and willingness to operate without a well-defined playbook; this portfolio is still building its operating model

Willingness to travel 50%+ of the time, including extended on-site periods during active company engagements

Analytical enough to read a P&L, identify the signal in operating data, and know when something is wrong before it becomes a crisis — even if financial modeling is not your primary skil

Hands-on experience with ServiceTitan or comparable field service management platforms (e.g., Jobber, FieldEdge, Service Fusion); willingness to become a deep platform expert is non-negotiable regardless of prior experience

Experience working within a private equity-backed or roll-up trades environment — as a regional manager, operations lead, GM, or similar role — where standardization, data visibility, and multi-site coordination were part of the job

Familiarity with the economics of field service businesses: technician productivity, dispatch efficiency, service agreement revenue, job costing, and margin by service type
