 When disaster strikes, leadership matters. At SERVPRO of Sarasota, we move quickly to turn chaos into clean, safe, rebuilt spaces—living our “Ready for Whatever Happens®” mindset every day. 

About the role

You’ll own both mitigation (water, fire, mold) and reconstruction delivery—leading Project Managers and field crews, aligning vendors/subs, and ensuring every job hits our targets for speed, documentation quality, safety, and margin. This is a hands‑on leadership role ideal for a restoration professional who can switch between the field and the office with equal confidence.

What you’ll do 

• Lead & develop teams: Coach PMs/Crew Chiefs/Technicians; run daily huddles; build capacity for CAT events and large‑loss work.
• Own job performance: Manage WIP from intake to invoice; drive cycle‑time, gross margin, and CSAT; minimize rework.
• Scope & estimate: Review scopes, sketches, and line items; ensure Xactimate accuracy; approve change orders.
• Quality & compliance: Enforce IICRC standards; conduct site audits; champion a safety‑first culture.
• Scheduling/dispatch: Align crews, equipment, and subs; manage on‑call rotations; ensure rapid emergency response.
• Customer & carrier comms: Set clear expectations; provide proactive updates to property owners, adjusters, and program partners.
• Documentation excellence: Ensure photos, logs, moisture readings, signatures, and materials are billing‑ready within SLA.
• Vendor & subcontractor management: Qualify subs; negotiate rates; hold partners accountable on schedule and quality.
• Reconstruction delivery: Coordinate trades; secure permits; pass inspections; drive punch‑list to zero.

What you’ll bring (qualifications)

• 1–3 + years in restoration/mitigation with 2+ years leading PMs/field teams in a fast‑paced environment.
• IICRC certifications (WRT required; ASD/FSRT/AMRT preferred).
• Strong Xactimate proficiency (scope, sketch, pricing, documentation).
• Valid driver’s license; ability to respond after‑hours/on‑call as needed.
• Clear, confident communication—written, verbal, and customer‑facing.
• Nice‑to‑have: Florida GC or CBC experience/licensure; large‑loss/CAT experience.

• Target base salary: $75,000–$100,000 DOE, plus performance bonus
• Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), paid time off, paid holidays, company vehicle or allowance, phone/laptop, paid training
