Lead the field. Build the team. Drive results.

We are looking for a hands-on Field Manager to lead our Johnson City, TN - area service team. This is not a desk-only role. You will be in the field, coaching technicians, solving real problems, supporting customers, and driving performance every day.

  • Ensure trucks, tools, and equipment are safe, clean, and professional
  • Diagnose plumbing and drain issues and prepare written estimates
  • Handle escalated customer concerns and ensure a best-in-class experience

  • Enforce all safety policies and procedures

What We're Looking For

  • 3-5+ years of people management experience in plumbing, construction, maintenance, service trades, or a similar role requiring team leadership, coaching, scheduling, performance management, and customer-facing problem solving
  • Plumbing experience strongly preferred (North Carolina, Tennessee, or Virginia Master Plumbers License is a plus)
  • Proven experience leading a service team of 5 or more
  • Track record of meeting or exceeding goals
  • Strong coaching, troubleshooting, and decision-making skills
  • Comfortable with physical, hands-on work when needed
  • Solid computer skills (Word, Excel, ServiceTitan or similar CRM)
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Physical Requirements (Yes, This Is a Real Field Role)

  • Frequent standing, walking, bending, squatting, kneeling, and reaching
  • Regular lifting up to 50 lbs; occasional lifting up to 90 lbs
  • Ability to lift/carry up to 150 lbs with assistance
  • Use of hand strength for tools, ladders, gates, and vehicle access
  • Frequent neck and trunk movement
  • Strong vision capabilities (close, color, peripheral, depth perception)

Reasonable accommodations may be made for qualified individuals.

Why Johnson City, TN?

You'll be leading a team in one of Tennessee's most unique and fast-growing markets-where quality workmanship, professionalism, and reputation matter. This is an opportunity to build something meaningful, not just manage schedules.

  • Understand that great service builds great companies

If that sounds like you, we want to talk.
