Director of Operations - Mitigation

This job is posted on behalf of Restoration Recruiters by Top Echelon.

Now Hiring: Director of Operations, Mitigation | South Florida (West Palm Beach / Deerfield Beach)

Are you the operator who’s always thinking, “If this were my shop, here’s how I’d run it”?

Here’s your chance.

A privately owned restoration company in South Florida is looking for a Director of Operations to lead its commercial and residential mitigation division. This isn’t a “keep the lights on” role. It’s a chance to put your own stamp on the operation, and to be a key leader in the company’s future market expansion.

What you’ll do:
Write the playbook: build and refine the SOPs, workflows, and systems that let the business scale
Then run it: lead crews, PMs, and field leadership day to day
Help lead expansion into new markets as the company grows
Drive growth across commercial and residential water, fire, and mold mitigation
Improve job costing, cycle times, documentation, and customer experience
Build a culture of accountability, safety, and quality work

Who you are:
✅ A proven mitigation operations leader (GM, Ops Manager, Director, or ready for the next step)
✅ Experienced on both commercial and residential losses
✅ A builder and an executor. You can design the system and make it stick
✅ Strong with people, numbers, and process
✅ IICRC certifications a plus

Why this one:
Privately owned, with direct access to ownership and no corporate red tape
Future market expansion, so you’ll be a key person helping lead it
South Florida market with steady demand and real room to grow
Competitive compensation and performance upside
Relocation assistance available

If you’ve been waiting for a seat at the table where you can build something and grow with it, let’s talk.
