Vancouver Flood Restorations and Emergency Repairs — Operations Manager (Flood Restoration)

Location: Richmond (on-site/hybrid)
Compensation: $5,000/month base + large profit share (uncapped)

Our comp philosophy is simple: “eat what you kill.” We keep base lean and reward performance heavily.Why This Role

You will run the operation end-to-end: lead crews, own dispatch and scheduling, drive profitability, and be the point of contact for clients and adjusters. If you like clear accountability and upside tied to results, this is for you.

Compensation Details

Base: $5,000/month (open to a higher base for an exceptional fit, typically offset by a lower share).
Profit Share: Large, uncapped, tied directly to branch profitability.
For context, our previous Operations Manager averaged ~$20,000 per quarter in profit share.
Realistic OTE Example: Base ($5k × 12 = $60k/yr) + Profit Share (~$80k/yr based on the prior OM) = ~$140k+/yr, with room to exceed if you scale the branch.

What You’ll Do

Lead & grow the field team: Hire, schedule, coach, and hold technicians accountable for safety, quality, and speed.
Own dispatch & scheduling: Coordinate rapid response for water, sewage, and storm events; optimize utilization and minimize downtime.
Quality & compliance: Ensure correct scoping, moisture mapping, drying plans, and airtight documentation (photos, logs, notes).
Client & adjuster comms: Be the steady, credible single point of contact for homeowners, property managers, and insurers.
Job costing & margins: Track materials, labor, equipment days; push profitable change orders; reduce leakage and callbacks.
Equipment & inventory: Deploy, track, and maintain dehus/air movers/extractors; manage vendors and loss prevention.
Process & SOPs: Build repeatable workflows, field checklists, and safety procedures; improve cycle time and throughput.
KPI ownership: Book rate, response time, dry-out compliance, cycle time, NPS, revenue, gross margin, tech utilization.
Reporting: Clear weekly/monthly ops + P&L insights with actions to increase profit per ticket and per crew.
On-call coverage: Participate in after-hours rotation to capture and convert urgent leads.

What You Bring

Strong leadership, communication, and crisis management; calm and organized under pressure.
