• In internally staffed markets, lead hiring, onboarding, training, and ongoing performance management of field personnel.
• Track regional operational KPIs (installs per tech per day, completion rate, repeat visit rate, customer satisfaction, truck rolls, OPEX).
• Partner with Operations Program Management to align on SLAs, SOPs, process updates, and reporting standards.
• Drive execution consistency across markets through standardization of procedures, materials, and tools.
• Conduct regular market visits and ride-alongs to audit field quality, safety, and customer interaction standards.
• Coordinate with Supply Chain for material forecasting and logistics to prevent job delays.
• Manage regional budgets, time utilization, and cost performance.

• Experience managing third-party vendors and enforcing SLAs and performance scorecards.
