Now Hiring
Director of Field Operations
We're hiring a hands-on Director of Field Operations to own and build our field operation, reporting directly to ownership. You'll run the full lifecycle — site visits, estimating, and proposals through planning, scheduling, staffing, execution, and completion — across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York. This is a field leadership role for someone who has already run crews in commercial cleaning, exterior building maintenance, facilities services, or the trades. It is not an administrative or coordinator position.
What you'll own
- Site visits and estimating: walk customer sites, gather measurements, photos, access requirements, and project details, and turn them into accurate scopes, labor estimates, and proposals using our pricing guides and templates.
- Operational planning: set labor hours, crew sizes, skill sets, equipment, materials, rentals, subcontractors, and expected costs for every job.
- Scheduling and execution: run field schedules, crew assignments, and customer coordination from award through completion, so work finishes safely, on time, and to our standard.
- Team leadership: recruit, hire, train, and directly oversee field technicians, crew leaders, and subcontractors, and build a dependable workforce that can carry more volume.
- Equipment and resources: keep crews equipped, trained, and safe; manage the company vehicle and storage unit; and handle purchasing, maintenance, and rentals.
- Job costing and profitability: track budgeted versus actual labor, productivity, and equipment costs on every job, and keep tightening our estimates and labor standards.
- Operational growth: build the scheduling systems, procedures, and performance tracking that let the operation scale.
How the role works
- Full-time, reporting directly to company ownership, working closely with ownership and our sales team.
- Field-based with no fixed office: planning and admin from home, and much of the week on customer sites.
- Based in Bucks County / Greater Philadelphia, with regular travel to job sites in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York.
- Access to a company truck/vehicle and a company storage unit for equipment and materials.
- We show up on time: if our crew is late to a job, the customer gets a $100 credit. You'll own making that true.
We work across 8 Pennsylvania counties and 14 in New Jersey, plus jobs in New York, so expect real drive time some days.
What you need
- 5+ years leading field crews in commercial cleaning, janitorial, window cleaning, pressure washing, restoration, facilities services, or the construction trades.
- You have personally walked sites, estimated, and priced jobs — not only managed the crews who did them.
- Experience scheduling and supervising technicians and subcontractors day to day.
- A working command of job costing and operational profitability.
- Working knowledge of OSHA safety requirements, and comfort on active job sites, outdoors, in every season.
- A valid driver's license and a clean driving record.
- Strong customer communication, organization, and judgment — comfortable making decisions without someone checking your work.
Nice to have
None of these are dealbreakers — they just move you up the list.
- Experience building or scaling operations inside a growing company.
- Ladder, lift, or suspended access (rope descent) experience.
- OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 certification.
- Experience with scheduling, dispatch, or field service software.
What we provide
- $85,000–$120,000 base salary, based on experience.
- Access to a company truck/vehicle and storage unit.
- A direct line to ownership and real authority over how the operation runs.
- A small, growing, fully insured company with a sales team generating the work.
Compensation
$85,000–$120,000 base salary per year, based on your experience.
