Armstrong Construction, Lebanon, Tennessee, United States, 37090
General Manager – Outdoor Products Division
Armstrong Construction is a family‑and veteran‑owned company with deep roots in Middle Tennessee, specializing in creating custom outdoor living spaces – decks, patios, pergolas, and screened porches – built with craftsmanship, integrity, and a lifetime guarantee.
Location: Lebanon, Middle Tennessee. Full‑time, on‑site hybrid schedule. Salary: $75,000 per year.
The Opportunity
Own end‑to‑end operational leadership of the division: estimating, scheduling, field production, quality control, client experience, warranty.
Build, lead and develop a team of skilled trades, crew leads and coordinators focused on residential outdoor builds (decks, patios, porches, pergolas).
Design and implement scalable systems – estimating templates, procurement processes, project workflows, staffing plans – that support growth.
Monitor and drive the division’s financial performance: budgets, gross margin, cost control, schedule adherence and client satisfaction.
Serve as the external face of the division: interacting with homeowners, trade partners, vendors, and representing the Armstrong Construction brand.
Collaborate with ownership on strategy: identify new services or product lines for the outdoor space, optimize service area, refine business model for increased profitability.
What We’re Looking For
Experience: At least 5+ years in residential construction (owner‑occupied homes strongly preferred) with solid exposure to outdoor living builds (custom decks, patios, porches).
Leadership: Minimum of 3+ years in a managerial role (foreman, superintendent, operations manager) with team oversight, project ownership and client interface.
Technical knowledge: Comfortable with structural decks, ledger attachments, site grading for patios, outdoor roofed structures, finishing details – able to manage quality accordingly.
Business acumen: Able to read and drive budgets, understand margins, monitor schedule versus cost, and implement systems that scale.
People skills: Strong communicator who can work with homeowners (explaining product options, managing expectations), trade contractors and in‑house staff. A positive, self‑starter mindset.
Entrepreneurial mindset: Energetic and growth‑oriented – not content with status quo but builds for future.
Tech savviness: Familiar with construction management software (Buildertrend, CoConstruct or similar) and comfortable adopting systems for workflow, scheduling and reporting.
Residency/Service area: Must be able to work within the Middle Tennessee region (Lebanon and surrounding areas) and willing to travel locally for job sites.
Compensation & Benefits
Competitive base salary commensurate with experience + bonus tied to division profitability and KPIs.
Vehicle allowance or company‑provided vehicle + phone stipend.
Paid time off, company holidays.
Growth opportunity: as the division grows, chance to take on expanded responsibility, possibly an equity or partner path.
Work with a highly‑skilled team and a brand committed to quality, craftsmanship and customer satisfaction.
Salary: $75,000 per year.
Why Join Armstrong Construction?
This is more than a job. You’ll lead a division within a company with strong local reputation and growth potential.
You’ll have autonomy to shape the division while backed by ownership that values craftsmanship, accountability and service.
If you’re ready to take ownership – not just of projects, but of a business within a business – this is your opportunity.
