• Pricing & Quoting Oversight: Evaluate new residential and commercial property service inquiries. Review on-site dimensions, architectural challenges, and labor requirements to build accurate, profitable project estimates based on regional company pricing structures.
• Proposal & RFP Management: Prepare, draft, and present competitive, professional quotes and bids for commercial clients, property managers, and strata boards. Participate in local Request for Proposal (RFP) processes to secure long-term service agreements.

• Experience: 3+ years of experience in operations management, field team leadership, or service manager role. Experience in property maintenance, landscaping, pressure washing, roofing, or pest control is highly valued. Sales experience is a plus.
