About the role
We’re actively interviewing CEO candidates for current and future acquisition opportunities. While timing varies by market and acquisition activity, selected candidates enter our CEO network and may be matched with opportunities as they become available. We are looking for experienced operators who have led asphalt and pavement operations. This is an opportunity to partner with American Operator through the acquisition process, with the goal of stepping into a profitable, established business with a strong reputation, a loyal customer base, and an experienced team already in place. American Operator leads sourcing and due diligence, and the selected candidate will contribute industry insights during that process before stepping into the operating role post-close. As CEO, you'll assume full responsibility for day-to-day operations and P&L performance. This is not a turnaround situation, it's an opportunity to build on a solid foundation set by the former owners. Your focus will be on developing and retaining a best-in-class sales force, driving customer acquisition and growth, and scaling the business to new products, customer segments and markets. American Operator will be your partner from day one, providing strategic support, resources, and guidance while empowering you to lead independently. Most importantly, you'll have a clear path to earning significant equity ownership in the business you grow and lead.
What you'll bring
- 7+ years of B2B sales leadership and coaching experience
- 4+ years of hiring and firing responsibility
- Experience owning company P&Ls and budgets
- MRO industrial sales background across commercial, healthcare, government, and manufacturing verticals
- Proven sales ability to navigate C-suite decision-makers
- Experience leading and developing a high-performing sales team in a relationship-driven business
- Ability to travel regularly to meet with sales reps and customers
