Summary
Park Square Homes is on a trajectory toward becoming a top 35 national homebuilder by 2035. The COO will serve as the operational anchor of the company — owning execution across construction, land, sales, marketing, purchasing, and customer experience while functioning as a true strategic thought partner to the CEO.
This is not a caretaker role. The incoming COO will step into a business that runs on data, moves fast, and is actively integrating AI across its operations. The CEO has high expectations, values candor, and wants a leader who will respectfully push back, engage openly on strategy, and commit fully once a direction is set. If you need to be told what to do next, this is not the right seat.
What you'll do
Operational leadership & execution
- Own day-to-day operational execution across construction, land, sales, purchasing, and customer experience — living in the numbers and driving accountability through structured reporting and defined KPIs.
- Translate company growth goals into operational plans with clear owners, timelines, and measurable outcomes.
- Build and enforce a culture of process discipline, daily rhythm, and high accountability without creating bureaucracy.
- Maintain strong field presence — this role demands visibility across operations, not corner office management.
Strategic partnership
- Serve as the CEO's strategic co-pilot — engaging openly, pushing back respectfully when warranted, and committing fully once a direction is set.
- Lead and develop a broad team of senior direct reports across field and office functions with high expectations and genuine investment.
- Contribute meaningfully to the company's long-term growth strategy, including geographic expansion planning and scalability initiatives targeting top 35 national builder status by 2035.
Land, development & financial oversight
- Drive land strategy and pipeline development in close coordination with the acquisitions and development teams — deep, hands-on land experience is a non-negotiable for this role.
- Manage banking and financing relationships in support of land and construction draws, lot banking structures, and development financing.
- Support capital deployment decisions and operational scalability investments tied to the company's aggressive growth objectives.
What you'll bring
- Meaningful senior operational tenure in residential homebuilding — COO, Division President, VP Operations, or equivalent
- Demonstrated track record in high-volume production environments; experience at 1,000+ homes per year strongly preferred
- Deep, hands-on background in land acquisition, entitlement, and development — not borrowed familiarity
- Finance and banking literacy tied to development: construction financing, lot banking, draw structures, and capital efficiency
- Experience in privately held, entrepreneurial companies preferred; comfort in lean, fast-moving, low-bureaucracy environments is a genuine advantage
- Data-driven operator who starts the day with dashboards and ends it reviewing metrics
Leadership profile
The right person for this role is assertive and high-urgency, data-driven and report-reliant, disciplined in routine, willing to push back constructively, and equally willing to commit once a decision is made. They build people as well as processes, and they are as present in the field as they are behind a desk.
Competencies
- Results orientation
- Strategic thinking
- Leadership & talent development
- Analytical thinking
- Collaboration & influence
- Adaptability
- Integrity & professionalism
Working conditions
