Your mission : drive $25M in net new revenue over the next 12 months by building a high-performance team, personally managing strategic accounts, and creating scalable systems that turn referrals into revenue.

We are making a strategic shift from consumer-driven emergency response to B2B referral sales, working with insurance brokers, executive general adjusters (EGAs), and facility managers. This transition requires longer sales cycles, higher standards, and relentless follow-through.

  • Marketing & CE : Build CE strategies, broker events, and ABM campaigns.
  • Forecasting & Alignment : Forecast revenue across multiple referral channels; partner with operations, marketing, and AR to align delivery with demand.
  • Tracking : Monitor referral velocity, channel contribution, and margin consistency.

  • Experienced in restoration, construction, facilities, or property claims - REQUIRED .
  • Relentlessly organized, with the ability to teach process discipline to others.
  • Unafraid of rejection and excellent under pressure.
  • Obsessed with performance, accountability, and truth over comfort.
