Maintenance Operations Manager
Location: Savannah, GA

Compensation:
$60,000 – $70,000 base + Profit Sharing ($6K–$11K annually, paid quarterly)

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This is not a “fix a mess” role.

You’re stepping into a high-performing, stable branch doing $7M in revenue with 95% client retention—and a clear goal to grow to $10M. Leadership is experienced, systems are in place, and they’re investing in adding a true operations leader to scale the business the right way.

If you’ve been stuck in a role where you’re doing everything without support, this is a chance to focus on leading production and building a team the right way.

The Role

You’ll report directly to the Branch Manager and take ownership of day-to-day field operations for commercial landscape maintenance and enhancements.

You’ll lead 8 crews (3–4 members each) and be responsible for making sure work is done efficiently, safely, and at a high level of quality.

This is a hands-on leadership role—you’re in the field, coaching your team, solving problems, and driving results.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead, coach, and develop field crews
• Manage daily scheduling and routing using Aspire
• Ensure quality across all job sites
• Conduct site visits and resolve issues proactively
• Train team members and build crew leaders
• Oversee equipment usage and care
• Support hiring, onboarding, and performance management
• Maintain strong communication between field and leadership

What Success Looks Like

• Crews are efficient, productive, and accountable
• Properties consistently meet or exceed client expectations
• You develop strong crew leaders and reduce turnover
• Operations scale smoothly as the branch grows

What We’re Looking For

• Experience managing landscape maintenance crews
• Strong leadership and communication skills
• Ability to organize, prioritize, and execute
• Comfortable using systems (Aspire experience is a big plus)
• Someone who takes ownership and leads from the front

Work Schedule

• Monday – Thursday: 6:30 AM – 5:30 PM (field-focused)
• Friday: Planning, scheduling, and administrative work

The Company

Our client is a $20M commercial landscape company with a strong reputation, solid leadership, and long-term client relationships. Their Savannah branch services a diverse portfolio including distribution centers, HOAs, multifamily, retail, and institutional properties.
