Partner & CEO Opportunity: Underground Utility Contractor

Are you an ambitious leader with a proven track record in construction, trenching, or boring, ready to step into a significant ownership role and drive the future of a thriving business? Have you envisioned owning your own underground utility firm but desire a strong foundation and strategic support?

Mainshares Capital is seeking a Partner & Chief Executive Officer to lead a well-established company specializing in the installation of underground water and sewer lines for residential developers. The company provides expert trenching and boring services. This is a unique opportunity to partner in the ownership and operation of a business with an established client base and a strong reputation for essential infrastructure work.

As a Partner & CEO, you'll benefit from a competitive compensation structure that includes substantial equity in the company, allowing you to build significant wealth as the business grows, alongside attractive bonus opportunities.

What You Can Expect

  • Strategic Partnership & Support: While you'll be the ultimate decision-maker, you'll gain access to Mainshares Capital's robust platform of services, advisors, and vendors. This includes mentorship and guidance from seasoned owners and operators in the construction and utility contracting sectors, providing valuable insights as you manage a high-impact business.
  • Uncapped Growth Potential: This opportunity offers the chance to directly impact the trajectory of a successful operation, driving significant growth in a dynamic market. You'll have the autonomy to implement strategies that unlock new revenue streams and expand market reach, with the financial rewards of ownership directly tied to your success.
  • Meaningful Ownership & Impact: You'll be at the helm of a respected small business, making critical operational and strategic decisions. Your leadership will directly shape the company's future, its impact on clients developing new communities, and the well-being of its employees, embodying our mission to foster robust small businesses.

About The Opportunity

This company is a trusted provider of underground utility services for residential developers. It offers essential trenching and boring services to install critical water and sewer lines, playing a vital role in new community development. The previous operator's responsibilities were hands-on, including setting weekly schedules, inspecting jobs, managing team leads, and handling on-site problems. This well-established business is ready for a dedicated leader with a vision to build upon its legacy and expand its market presence.

Who We Are Looking For

We're searching for a highly driven, experienced construction leader who is skilled in planning, quality control, client relations, financials, and strategic growth. This role requires a hands-on approach to operations and a proven ability to lead teams in the field.

Essential Qualifications

  • Industry Leadership: 10+ years of comprehensive experience in the construction, utility, or underground services industry, with a proven track record of managing and scaling operations.
  • Operational Excellence: Deep understanding and hands-on experience with all aspects of trenching and boring operations, including project bidding, scheduling, budget management, and quality control.
  • Team Leadership: Proven experience in leading construction teams, including managing team leads and resolving on-site issues.
  • Business Development & Client Relations: Demonstrated success in managing client relationships, securing new projects, contract negotiation, and a strong ability to identify and capitalize on market opportunities.
  • Financial & Business Management: Significant experience in small business management, including budgeting, financial analysis, P&L responsibility, and strategic planning to maximize profitability.
  • Technical Proficiency: In-depth knowledge of underground utility installation methods, relevant materials, heavy equipment operation, safety protocols (e.g., OSHA), and industry best practices.
  • Regulatory Understanding: Possess or be able to obtain the necessary licensing for Water & Sewer in accordance with local regulations. A solid understanding of relevant building codes and permitting processes is essential.

Ready to take the next step in your career and become a partner and CEO of a thriving trenching and boring business? We invite you to explore this exciting opportunity.
