Full Job Description

COMPANY OVERVIEW
Legacy Home Builders is one of the fastest-growing residential developers and builders in North Carolina. We develop, build, lease, sell, and manage entire communities with a long-term vision of becoming a multi-state, vertically integrated real estate company.

Today, we're building hundreds of homes annually. Our goal is to build an organization capable of delivering more than 1,000 homes per year while maintaining exceptional quality, operational excellence, and a strong leadership culture. We are committed to developing leaders, creating scalable systems, and building communities that leave a lasting impact.

JOB OVERVIEW
The Vice President of Operations serves as the company's second-in-command and is responsible for leading all operational departments while building the executive leadership team that will drive Legacy Home Builders through its next stage of growth.

This is not a traditional operations role. We are looking for a leader who builds organizations—not just manages them.

The ideal candidate has successfully scaled residential construction, homebuilding, or real estate development organizations by developing leaders, implementing systems, improving operational performance, and creating a culture of accountability.

Your mission is simple:
Build an organization that becomes less dependent on the CEO and more dependent on exceptional leaders, scalable systems, and operational excellence.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Executive Leadership

Lead the day-to-day operations of Legacy Home Builders
Provide executive oversight for Construction, Purchasing, Land Development, Entitlements & Permitting, Sales Operations, Property Management, Customer Experience & Warranty, and Finance (in partnership with the Controller and CFO)
Build, mentor, and develop department directors and executive leaders
Conduct weekly executive leadership meetings
Drive execution of quarterly and annual strategic initiatives
Create clear accountability across every department
Support the CEO in achieving long-term strategic objectives

Organizational Development

Design organizational structure to support rapid company growth
Define roles, responsibilities, and reporting structures
Build leadership succession plans
Recruit and develop high-performing executive talent
Coach department leaders to become independent decision-makers
Foster a culture centered around accountability, ownership, and continuous improvement
Develop leadership training and professional development programs

Operational Excellence

Develop scalable systems and operational processes across the organization
Improve communication, scheduling, reporting, accountability, and operational efficiency
Standardize KPIs and performance metrics across all departments
Implement executive dashboards and reporting tools
Lead company-wide process improvement initiatives
Drive technology adoption, ERP implementation, and operational automation where appropriate

Financial Leadership

Partner with the Controller and CFO to improve company profitability
Review departmental budgets and financial performance
Monitor operational KPIs and financial metrics
Identify opportunities for cost reduction and efficiency improvements
Improve gross margins and overall operational performance
Support long-term financial planning and growth initiatives

Cross-Functional Leadership

Ensure seamless collaboration between land acquisition, development, construction, sales, leasing, warranty, and property management
Remove operational bottlenecks and improve communication across departments
Align departmental priorities with overall company objectives
Improve customer experience through operational consistency

Leadership Development

Recruit, mentor, and develop executive-level leaders
Build leadership capacity throughout the organization
Establish accountability systems that empower leaders to operate independently
Develop the next generation of company leadership

QUALIFICATIONS

10+ years of senior operational leadership experience
Proven success leading multiple departments or business units
Experience scaling a residential homebuilding, real estate development, or construction organization
Strong financial, operational, and strategic business acumen
Demonstrated success recruiting, developing, and leading executive teams
Exceptional leadership, communication, and decision-making skills
Experience implementing organizational systems, SOPs, KPIs, and performance reporting
Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities
Ability to lead organizational change while maintaining operational excellence

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Production homebuilding experience
Build-to-Rent (BTR) experience
Experience leading organizations exceeding $100 million in annual revenue
Experience with Lean, EOS, or similar operational excellence frameworks
Experience implementing ERP, project management, and reporting systems
Bachelor's degree in Business, Construction Management, Engineering, Finance, or a related field
MBA or advanced leadership education preferred

FIRST-YEAR OBJECTIVES

Build a high-performing executive leadership team
Recruit and onboard a Director of Construction
Standardize KPIs across every department
Implement executive dashboards and reporting systems
Improve communication and accountability company-wide
Increase operational efficiency while supporting aggressive growth
Build the operational infrastructure necessary to scale beyond 1,000 homes annually

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
Within 18 months:

Every operational department is led by a strong director
Construction operates through a Director of Construction rather than the CEO
Weekly executive meetings are driven by measurable KPIs and data
Department leaders solve problems independently
The CEO is focused on strategy, capital, acquisitions, partnerships, and growth instead of daily operations
Legacy Home Builders is operationally prepared to expand confidently into new markets

OUR CORE VALUES

Accountability
We take ownership of every decision, every action, and every result. Accountability means delivering on our commitments, operating with integrity, and standing behind the quality of our work.

Excellence
Excellence is our standard — not an option. From development to execution, we are committed to craftsmanship, innovation, and delivering exceptional communities that exceed expectations.

Empowered Growth
We believe growth begins with people. By creating opportunities, developing leaders, and fostering a culture without limits, we empower individuals and teams to reach their highest potential.

WHY JOIN LEGACY HOME BUILDERS?
This is an opportunity to build more than homes—you'll help build one of the Southeast's premier residential real estate companies.

As Vice President of Operations, you will shape the systems, leadership team, and culture that will support Legacy Home Builders for decades to come. Your work will directly influence how the company scales, develops leaders, and executes its vision of becoming a best-in-class, vertically integrated real estate organization.

If you're energized by building organizations, developing leaders, and creating lasting impact, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and help build the future of Legacy Home Builders.

Pay: From $200,000.00 per year
