At Mathews Mechanical, our mission is simple: we help people solve problems.
We are a fast-growing industrial maintenance and custom fabrication company serving some of the most demanding industrial and manufacturing clients in the San Francisco Bay Area, Portland, Seattle, and Denver. Our customers rely on us because we move quickly, solve problems others avoid, and deliver high-quality work safely and efficiently.
We are looking for a hands-on operational leader to run and grow our Denver branch.
This is not a desk-management role. We need someone who can lead people, drive performance, solve operational challenges, and build a high-performing team in a fast-paced industrial environment. The right person will have real ownership over branch operations, financial performance, team development, and customer relationships.
If you thrive in environments where accountability matters, decisions need to be made quickly, and results are expected, this is an opportunity to help build something meaningful.
