  • Run daily huddles and monthly one-on-ones with each teammate
  • Maintain a 4.8+ Google rating; review customer feedback daily and resolve issues same-day
  • Partner with marketing monthly to grow demand across both service areas
  • Keep accounts receivable current with no balances past 90 days
  • Own safety training, processes, and reporting; ensure compliance with company policy and state employment law
  • Partner with recruiting monthly to maintain staffing levels and reduce turnover
  • Travel regularly between both locations
