The Mission
This is a PE-backed portable sanitation platform scaling nationwide through aggressive organic growth and acquisitions. The company already operates multiple branches across Southern California and is rapidly expanding its national footprint. They need a Regional General Managerto own the performance and operations of the entire SoCal region.
This is not a maintenance role. Each branch today has a branch/operations manager with limited P&L understanding. The company needs a business athlete who can step above the branch level, own the regional P&L, drive operational rigor, and integrate future acquisitions—all while sitting on the executive leadership team and helping shape the company's trajectory.
What You'll Own
- Full P&L responsibility across SoCal branches: revenue, margins, EBITDA, and growth targets (~$25M and expanding)
- Operational oversight of 3 branch/operations managers—raising the bar on performance management, accountability, and financial literacy at the branch level
- Integration and optimization of acquired branches as the platform continues to roll up
- KPI-driven performance management with weekly and monthly operating rhythms

- Ability to operate both strategically (growth planning, M&A integration) and tactically (daily ops, branch-level problem solving)

- Comfort with ambiguity and fast-paced, high-change environments
