CEO of ~$40M Equity Holdco Rollup Modeled After Berkshire Hathaway

Start date: ASAP​

Position: CEO for ~$40m Equity Holding Company (Rollup)​

Compensation: Slightly depends on candidate profile, but our starting base case is ~$300k - $350k/year in cash + significant equity upside. (We’re selecting for folks who view this trade as an entrepreneurial / fun / big-title-and-growth opportunity vs. a brand name opportunity, which we’re not yet.) ​

Location: Remote pre-close and very likely on-site post-close (ultimately TBD)​

Commitment: Full-time​

Duration: Initial commitment of 5 years (forever if a good fit)​

Activities: The role combines deploying approximately $40 million of equity through acquisitions with leading the operations of acquired assets. We are looking for an executional rock star. The role is highly hands-on and operational—messy, unglamorous, and deeply involved in the daily minutiae of small-business optimization—rather than traditional allocator or investment professional work (e.g., modeling and deal analysis). Traditional financial activities will represent a small minority of the CEO’s time. Success requires rolling up your sleeves, operating with limited resources and imperfect information, and personally solving problems that would be delegated in a larger organization. Said simply, if your goal is to be Warren Buffett, this role is not for you.​

​

• M&A and Integration (20%): Deploy approximately $40 million of equity through strategic acquisitions. Source and evaluate acquisition opportunities in coordination with Tucker’s Farm’s M&A team. Lead the integration of acquired businesses and develop a repeatable playbook for future platform expansion.​
• Operational Leadership (80%): Lead platform operations following the acquisition of the first asset. This includes: (1) providing daily operational leadership and strategic direction across all business units; (2) overseeing budgeting, forecasting, and resource allocation through clear KPIs—and holding team members accountable for performance; and (3) leading the recruitment, training, and development of management team members. The CEO must be equally willing to set the strategy and dive into the weeds—doing whatever is required to solve problems, improve performance, and build the platform.​
