Branch Manager – Industrial Operations (Veteran-Preferred)

Location: Charlotte, NC

Commitment: Full-Time

Base Salary:$90,000 – $120,000 + up to 40% annual incentive bonus

Work Style: Onsite with local field leadership responsibilities

About the Role:

We’re hiring a Branch Manager for a national industrial services firm that delivers mobile pumping, containment, and engineered solutions for agriculture, infrastructure, and industry. This role is ideal for a veteran leader —someone who has owned missions, led teams, and delivered results.

In this role, you’ll oversee P&L performance, team leadership, sales execution, and operational excellence. You’ll be trusted to run the branch with the autonomy to make decisions and the responsibility to ensure your team and territory thrive.

Why It’s Veteran-Aligned:

• You’ve led people, managed assets, and solved complex problems in high-stakes environments
• You understand accountability, risk, and how to lead with integrity
• You’ve worked in structured systems—but know how to adapt and lead independently
• This role gives you a mission, a team, and a chance to lead from the front

Your Mission:

• Oversee all branch operations: safety, sales, delivery, service, and customer success
• Lead and develop your team—recruiting, training, coaching, and managing performance
• Own the branch P&L: monitor income statements, control costs, and grow margin
• Drive local business development and support reps on client strategy and visits
• Ensure the branch meets safety, environmental, and service standards
• Monitor contracts, receivables, inventory, and asset performance
• Participate in industry events, Brown Bags, Tow & Shows, and local associations
• Lead from the front—promoting professionalism, discipline, and teamwork at all levels
• Foster strong internal collaboration across branch, regional, and corporate teams

Who You Are:

• Military veteran strongly preferred —especially with command or ops background
• 8–10 years of experience in industrial, operational, or service leadership roles
• 5+ years of direct team management and P&L accountability
• Comfortable with sales processes, customer engagement, and business development
• Knowledge of pumps, irrigation, water movement, or fluid handling is a plus
• Bachelor’s degree in Business or related field (or equivalent leadership experience)
• Valid driver’s license required

What You’ll Receive:

• Base Salary:$90,000 – $120,000
• Bonus: Up to 40% annual performance incentive
• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision benefits
• 401(k) with employer match
• Paid holidays and generous PTO
• Tuition reimbursement and career development
• Leadership path at a company recognized as a 2025 Military Friendly® Gold Employer
