About The Position

Park Square Homes is seeking a Chief Operating Officer (COO) to serve as the operational anchor of the company, driving execution across construction, land, sales, marketing, purchasing, and customer experience. The COO will be a strategic thought partner to the CEO in a data-driven, fast-paced environment that is actively integrating AI. This role requires a leader who can push back respectfully, engage openly on strategy, and commit fully once a direction is set. It is not a caretaker role, and the ideal candidate will be proactive and self-directed.

Demonstrated track record in high-volume production environments; experience at 1,000+ homes per year strongly preferred
Deep, hands-on background in land acquisition, entitlement, and development — not borrowed familiarity
Finance and banking literacy tied to development: construction financing, lot banking, draw structures, and capital efficiency
Experience in privately held, entrepreneurial companies preferred; comfort in lean, fast-moving, low-bureaucracy environments is a genuine advantage
Data-driven operator who starts the day with dashboards and ends it reviewing metrics
Assertive and high-urgency
Data-driven and report-reliant
Disciplined in routine
Willing to push back constructively
Willing to commit once a decision is made
