Recruiter's Take (Michael Schlager)

Position Overview: Site Lead – Agile Growth Environment

We’re seeking a highly motivated, self-directed individual to take full command of our local operations. As the sole on-site leader, you’ll be the driving force behind day-to-day execution, reporting directly to a senior executive who is on-site once a week and available remotely the rest of the time. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in autonomy, embraces responsibility, and is energized by rapid growth and transformation.

Why This Role Is Unique:

This isn’t just another job—it’s a launchpad. You’ll be joining a new company with a bold Agile Development roadmap, designed to integrate multiple businesses over the next year. The pace of change here is intense: what most companies achieve in a decade, we plan to accomplish in just one to two years. That means your impact—and your resume—will grow fast.

What We’re Looking For:

A proactive leader who can operate independently and make confident decisions.
Someone who values structure, metrics, and KPIs as tools for growth - not red tape.
A team builder who’s passionate about developing people, not replacing them.
A change agent who sees opportunity in challenge and thrives in a fast-moving environment.

What We’re Not Looking For:

Individuals who prefer to be told what to do every step of the way.
Those uncomfortable with accountability or resistant to change.
Anyone who isn’t excited about becoming great at what they do.

The Culture:

We’re building a positive, mission-driven, and growth-oriented culture. If you’re assertive, adaptable, and ready to lead from the front, this is your chance to be part of something transformative.
