Job Description

Every home deserves a defender. As a Home Guardian - Field Sales & Service Manager, your job is to build and lead the team that makes that promise real—day in, day out, across every neighborhood in your territory.

This isn't a behind-the-desk leadership role. You're in the field alongside your team, modeling what great customer engagement looks like, demonstrating best-in-class service delivery, and showing—not just telling—what it means to be a true Home Guardian. You'll drive new customer acquisition, strengthen service retention, and serve as the critical link between boots-on-the-ground execution and branch-level growth.

You'll directly supervise a team of field sales and service professionals, developing their skills, holding the standard high, and pushing everyone—including yourself—to keep improving. You report to the Regional Manager and operate as a key driver of your branch's success.

The right person for this role leads from the front, thrives in a fast-paced outdoor environment, and genuinely believes that protecting a family's home is worth doing right. If you're the kind of leader who builds people up while delivering results, and you want to be part of something bigger than a sales quota—this is your role.

We got you – Go-Forth: Your home's guardian.

First and foremost, your core values should align with ours:

  • Give A Crap - Delight others by owning your role and saying yes. Take pride in how you appear & act & every other detail of the job. Be on time, attentive, & enthusiastic. Act as if the buck stops with you on every aspect of the job.
  • Dig With a Flashlight -Lead with Curiosity. Don’t guess. Look. Don’t assume. Test. Stay curious enough to change your mind. Understand the cause of the fire before you grab the hose.
  • Fight For Simplicity -Keep it simple & consistent. Focus on how things should be done every time.
  • Face It, Fix It - Confront challenges directly and address issues head-on. A bias for action and powerful conversations drive our progress. It’s about getting it right rather than being right.
  • GROW! Fast. - Two things are guaranteed: things will change. And they’ll change quickly. So we grow fast. As people. As a team. As a business. Learn quickly. Adapt quickly. Improve constantly. We happen TO the world.
