Waterloo Turf is a rapidly growing brand redefining the customer experience in turf installation. We are looking for a General Manager to launch and lead our new location, with a primary focus on sales performance, project execution, and day-to-day operations. This is a high-ownership role ideal for someone who can drive growth through hands-on selling, meticulous oversight of installs, and strong accountability across every phase of the business. You'll begin by running the full sales and operations cycle yourself-then build a lean team as the business scales.

Track and report sales KPIs (close rate, average ticket, conversion times) and drive consistent performance

Operational Oversight

Oversee project execution to ensure installs are completed on time, on budget, and meet quality standards

Use internal systems (Jobber, etc.) to manage scheduling, customer communication, and job tracking

Monitor key operational metrics including install timelines, crew performance, margin, and client satisfaction

Who This Role Is For

A high-performing operator who excels at driving sales and executing at a high standard

Someone comfortable wearing multiple hats-selling, managing projects, handling client relationships, and making day-to-day decisions

Highly organized and self-motivated, with excellent communication and follow-through

Capable of building structure and discipline into a growing field service business

Confident in front of clients, reliable under pressure, and driven by outcomes

Preferred Experience & Qualifications

2+ years of experience in landscaping or a related home services trade is a strong plus

2+ years of sales experience, particularly in B2C or territory-based roles, is preferred

Bilingual in Spanish is plus

What Success Looks Like
