Operations Director, West Coast

I'm working on a search for a business that has grown aggressively through acquisition across California - and they've reached the point where operational maturity now matters more than simply reacting to problems.

They don't need someone to "keep things moving."

They need someone who can:

• build systems
• set up standards nationally for the service department of a national dealership
• create accountability
• sounding board for the executive team with the confidence to challenge them if they think right to do so
• integrate acquired organizations
• think strategically about the operations strategy regionally & the service offering nationally

The role sits at Operations Director level today, but the long-term vision is much bigger:
→ West Coast regional leadership
→ Progression into a VP title, with accompanying compensation & potential equity.

It's a serious opportunity for someone with a strong industry background who understands the commercial side of the business and can manage a P&L.
