Manager of Build

The next chapter of growth for Yardzen - the leading landscape design platform for nearly a decade - is helping more of our clients bring their outdoor renovation project all the way through to completion. We’re turning a network of high-performing contractors and a fast-growing book of design clients into one seamless Yardzen experience, from first inspiration to dream yard. And delivering a delightful client experience and capturing the full value of the project along the way. 

If you’re the kind of person who thrives in a fast-paced environment full of ambiguity, loves to make sense of data and excels at people management, we have a role for you. 

As the Manager of Build you’ll be responsible for leading Yardzen's Build business, assembling and managing a network of vetted outdoor contractors, a team of Project Managers who act as Yardzen clients’ single point of contact and driving ambitious revenue growth.

The ideal candidate is a strategic operator who enjoys solving complex problems, developing people, improving systems and driving measurable business results.

• The machine. You’ll design the systems that let Build scale. You’ll standardize the playbook and  document what works, kill the bottlenecks and put AI and automation on the repetitive work so your team spends its energy where it actually moves the number.
  
  
• The business. Accountability for Build revenue and growth. You’ll own conversion by market, forecast performance, spot risk and opportunity early, and partner with the CEO, Head of Marketing, Product and Design Operations to clear anything standing between a client and a finished yard. When a market is underperforming, you build the plan and you fix it.
  
  
• The team. You’ll recruit, coach and develop a team of Build Project Managers who operate at a high level. You set clear expectations and KPIs, hold a high bar on accountability and build a culture of ownership, outcomes and speed.
  
  
• The contractor network. You’ll ensure the contractors in our network consistently hit standards for conversion, responsiveness, quality and execution. You expand the network to fuel growth, only when the data deems necessary. 

At Yardzen, we’re committed to creating a space where our employees can bring their full selves to work and have equal opportunities to succeed. We are looking for people that will add to our culture, not just fit in.  So regardless of race, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, religion, origin, ability, age, or veteran status, if joining this mission speaks to you, we encourage you to apply!
