Job Description

About Liberty:

Founded in Boston, Massachusetts in 2007, Liberty offers expertise in a broad array of construction and equipment services nationwide including general requirements, equipment, supply, concrete, special projects, and site access solutions. Our experience, combined with our innovative approach and stellar customer service, ensures a seamless experience —with safety and reliability at the forefront. We’ve built strong relationships with key contractors and clients in every sector, including commercial, residential, healthcare, and higher education.

Overview:

Liberty is a self-perform subcontractor on a fast-growth trajectory, building the operational infrastructure needed to scale nationally. We are seeking a Fort Lauderdale–based Operations Manager to partner with the CEO on two fronts: (1) supporting high-priority projects that require intervention, and (2) supporting core operational functions including internal reporting, process management, and operational excellence.

This is a builder’s role—ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and knows how to connect jobsite realities with executive-level priorities.

Duties & Responsibilities:

Core Functions

• Support and implement foundational processes for the core operations of the business
• Collaborate across Safety, Finance, P&C, and Planning to align tools and talent with operational needs

Project Support & Field Execution

• Support in short-term interventions on “focus projects” with performance challenges or risk indicators
• Partner with superintendents, PMs, and field leaders to solve issues on-site and track action items to closure

Cash & Commercial Health

• Own Liberty’s AR reporting and update cadence, surfacing issues jeopardizing working capital or triggering lien deadlines
• Support project teams in enforcing payment terms and accelerating cash collection
• Escalate risk items to the CEO and GM’s with clear next steps and needed interventions

Talent & Staffing Support

• Support hiring conversations in partnership with regional leaders and P&C
• Identify gaps in leadership and staffing on critical projects; assist with shortlisting and onboarding solutions
• Advise on operational org structure as Liberty grows into new geographies and trades

Reporting & Leadership Rhythm

• Own and manage key reporting tools and leadership cadences, including:
• AR Update Report
• Liberty Leadership Agenda materials
• Departmental operational initiative tracking
• Operation Leadership Meetings
• Weekly Ops Review Meeting
• Safety Meetings
• Legal Weekly Meetings

Qualifications:

• 8+ years in project or operations leadership in the construction industry, preferably within a self-perform or subcontractor environment
• Proven ability to develop systems and infrastructure from scratch in a scaling organization
• Strong working knowledge of project financials, job costing, schedule recovery, and risk exposure
• Excellent interpersonal and executive communication skills—credible in the field, clear in the boardroom
• Highly organized, data-aware, and committed to follow-through
• Willingness to travel frequently across the U.S. to project sites and regional offices

Working Conditions:

Construction jobsite and warehouse conditions, which include exposure to high temperatures; cool/cold temperatures; weather conditions, and loud noises. Some general office and construction trailer working conditions. Job site walking.
