Join our team and what we'll accomplish together

As Manager – Operations, you'll own the national operational engine that powers our Door-to-Door channel. You'll manage a team of QA specialists, govern external partner field staff, and control a $1M+ budget—all while removing barriers to sales success and accelerating customer delivery.

Your operational programs are designed with one goal: eliminate obstacles to sales success. You'll strengthen vendor relationships, optimize inventory, and ensure every rep has what they need to win. The result? Faster installations, higher sales quality, and improved rep productivity. If you're an operations leader with proven ability to manage complex, multi-stakeholder environments at scale—someone who's disciplined, strategic, and energized by operational excellence—this is your opportunity to lead national operations that directly enable sales success and impact thousands of customers.

  • Strengthen vendor accountability through performance tracking, compliance audits, and structured partner governance frameworks
  • Lead cross-functional initiatives to improve onboarding speed, training completion, and operational readiness across vendor populations
