About Our Client

Our client is a results-driven, family-owned landscaping and construction firm that has evolved into a premier team of industry professionals. Operating with a meritocracy-based philosophy, they prioritize performance and professional standards over traditional seniority. The company has built a culture centered on mutual respect, professionalism, and a genuine passion for the work, fostering an environment where team members are excited to contribute to the organization's rapid growth. With a focus on high-quality residential and expanding commercial sectors, they maintain a strong local reputation backed by exceptional community engagement and a commitment to employee well-being.

The Opportunity

This is a pivotal leadership mandate for a seasoned professional to assume full operational and financial P&L accountability for a $7 million organization. As the successor to the current General Manager, you will lead the company through a period of significant expansion into new geographic markets and commercial construction sectors. This hands-on role requires a strategic driver capable of managing multi-million-dollar budgets, optimizing job costing, and mentoring a high-performing team across maintenance, construction, and tree divisions. You will be the primary authority responsible for driving the organization from its current state toward an $8 million revenue target.

The Location

The position is based in the Prescott / Yavapai County area of Arizona. This region offers a high quality of life with a rapidly growing population and a robust market for both high-end residential landscaping and commercial development. The area serves as a central hub for surrounding communities such as Chino Valley, Dewey, and Humboldt, providing a beautiful Northern Arizona backdrop characterized by a unique climate that includes distinct seasonal shifts and occasional snow.

What You Will Do

  • Assume full P&L accountability including managing balance sheets, financial forecasts, and rigorous cost controls.
  • Direct daily operations for all departments to ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.
  • Oversee the sales pipeline and provide daily coaching to the sales team to improve close ratios and hit revenue metrics.
  • Conduct daily field visits to ensure job site safety, cleanliness, and operational efficiency.
  • Lead daily stand-up meetings and foster a culture of accountability and professionalism.
  • Manage the mechanic shop and oversee material readiness and vehicle efficiency to prevent operational bottlenecks.
  • Implement and refine operational processes and project scheduling to enhance overall productivity.
  • Act as a key decision-maker in personnel matters, including recruiting, mentoring, and performance management

Who You Are

  • A seasoned leader with a minimum of 3 to 5 years of experience in operational leadership and P&L management, specifically within the landscape or construction industries.
  • A data-driven professional with exceptional financial acumen and a proven track record of managing multi-million-dollar budgets.
  • A decisive communicator with high emotional intelligence, capable of navigating challenging conversations with firmness and fairness.
  • A proactive problem-solver who identifies operational bottlenecks and implements preventative measures.
  • An early riser comfortable with a rigorous schedule, typically starting between 5:30 AM and 6:00 AM.
  • A results-oriented professional who avoids workplace drama and prioritizes measurable outcomes over activity.
  • A team player willing to participate in community events and lead by example in the field.
The Ideal Candidate is a local professional with deep industry knowledge who can seamlessly integrate into a high-performing culture without disrupting the "apple cart". You must have a strong background in residential-heavy construction environments and possess the ability to push a sales department toward aggressive growth. Unlike managers from large-scale commercial maintenance firms, you are comfortable with the high-pressure demands of a sales-driven environment and are equally adept at reviewing P&L statements as you are at walking a job site. You are a strategic thinker who can "wear multiple hats," balancing office-based financial oversight with active field leadership.

Why Join the Team?

Joining this organization offers the opportunity to lead a premier company during a phase of explosive regional growth and market diversification. You will work within a merit-based environment that rewards high performance and professional excellence while maintaining a supportive culture that values employee well-being. The company provides essential tools for success, including a company vehicle and gas card for professional use. This is a chance to fully own the operations of a successful business, supported by a talented and dedicated team, with clear pathways for professional impact and organizational leadership.
