Job Description

Our client is a rapidly scaling essential services platform built through disciplined acquisition and organic growth. The organization has reached an inflection point where technology must evolve from supporting growth to powering growth .

We are seeking a transformational Chief Information Officer (CIO) to architect and lead the next-generation enterprise technology ecosystem that will unify operating companies, modernize platforms, unlock data visibility, and directly enable EBITDA expansion, margin improvement, and scalable M&A integration.

This is a builder’s role designed for a hands-on, business-first technology executive who thrives in high-velocity, acquisition-driven environments.

What You’ll Own

Enterprise Platform Strategy
  • Design and lead the enterprise technology roadmap supporting multi-location operating companies.
  • Drive ERP, CRM, operations, finance, and data platform modernization.
  • Establish scalable integration frameworks for future acquisitions.
M&A Integration Leadership
  • Own technology diligence, integration strategy, and post-close execution.
  • Build repeatable playbooks that reduce integration time, risk, and cost.
Data, Analytics & Visibility
  • Build enterprise reporting and analytics platforms delivering real-time visibility into:
    • Revenue and margin performance
    • Service operations
    • Labor efficiency
    • Acquisition performance
    • Customer lifecycle metrics
Cybersecurity & Infrastructure
  • Own cybersecurity strategy, risk posture, compliance readiness, and vendor governance.
  • Ensure secure, resilient infrastructure across all operating companies.
Operational Excellence
  • Improve frontline productivity, service routing efficiency, and customer experience through technology.
  • Standardize tools while preserving local operating speed.
  • Translate operational strategy into scalable technology execution.
Leadership & Culture

Build, lead, and mentor a high-performance IT and data organization.

Establish strong cross-functional partnerships with Finance, Operations, HR, and M&A.

Requirements

This person doesn’t talk about “digital transformation.”
They deliver it.

You bring:

  • Senior IT/technology leadership experience in PE-backed, multi-location, or essential services platforms.
  • Proven success modernizing ERP, CRM, and enterprise operations ecosystems.
  • Direct experience leading M&A technology diligence and integration.
  • Strong data and analytics leadership.
  • Business acumen — you understand EBITDA, margin drivers, and operating leverage.
  • The ability to balance standardization with local operating speed.
  • A hands-on leadership style — sleeves rolled up, not stuck in PowerPoint.
Why This Role Is Different
  • This CIO sits at the center of the company’s value creation plan.
  • Your roadmap and execution will directly influence valuation, growth velocity, and acquisition scalability.
  • You will unify operating companies onto a common enterprise platform.
  • You will be a core architect of the company’s value creation strategy and a strategic partner to the executive team.

Benefits

This is a full-time role with corporate benefits
