Lead the field. Own the operation. Drive results.

Are you a proven leader who thrives in the field, understands people and equipment, and knows how to run a tight operation day in and day out? We’re looking for a Maintenance Operations Manager ready to take full ownership of a landscape maintenance operation and deliver exceptional results.

If you don’t just schedule work—you own the outcome—this role was built for you.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead daily landscape maintenance operations for the McHenry branch
  • Manage supervisors, foremen, and crews to ensure safe, efficient, high-quality work
  • Oversee scheduling, routing, and ticket execution using Aspire
  • Align labor, equipment, and materials to meet operational goals
  • Coordinate fleet usage, preventative maintenance, and equipment readiness
  • Solve real-time challenges such as weather, staffing, and client needs
  • Hold teams accountable to quality, safety, and performance standards
  • Partner with leadership and account teams to deliver outstanding client outcomes

This is a hands-on leadership role—you’ll be visible in the field, engaged with your team, and accountable for results.

What You Bring

  • Deep experience in commercial landscape maintenance
  • Strong leadership presence with the ability to build high-performing teams
  • Exceptional organization and decision-making skills
  • Comfort managing crews, routes, equipment, and timelines
  • Experience with Aspire or similar operational systems
  • Pride in running a disciplined, efficient operation

Why Join Us?

  • A true leadership seat with authority and accountability
  • The opportunity to run a full maintenance operation—not just manage tasks
  • A culture that values structure, safety, and operational excellence
  • Long-term growth potential within an expanding organization

Ready to lead from the front and make a measurable impact? Apply today and take ownership of your next career move!
