About the JobOPERATIONS DIRECTORComfort Systems of Montana, Inc.
Bozeman, MT
JOB SUMMARYComfort Systems of Montana is looking for an Operations Director who wants to run the entire machine. This is the second seat in the business, and the leader who fills it owns how this company performs every single day.
You will lead every department under our roof: Service, Install, Fleet, Warehouse, Safety, and Administration. You will own the scoreboard, build the systems, and hold the standard. When a number is off, you find out why. When a process is broken, you rebuild it, document it, and train the team on it. When a leader is not growing, you coach them up or you make the hard call. This is a role for someone who runs toward accountability instead of away from it.
You will also own the execution side of our marketing engine. You will run the campaigns that fill our board, track performance down to cost per lead and return on ad spend, and make sure every marketing dollar we spend shows up as a booked call, a sold job, and revenue on the P and L. Marketing creates the opportunity. Operations converts it. You sit at the center of both.

- Set the tone for a disciplined, high-performance culture built on belief, accountability, and alignment with our veteran-led values.
