Springfield, MA
Partner & CEO Opportunity: Landscaping & Nursery Services

Are you an ambitious and experienced leader with a passion for landscaping and horticulture, ready to step into a significant ownership role and drive the future of a thriving business? Have you envisioned owning a company with diverse, year-round revenue streams but desire a strong foundation and strategic support?

Mainshares Capital is seeking a Partner & Chief Executive Officer to lead a well-established company with a unique, synergistic business model. With a 50/50 split between landscaping services and nursery operations, the company creates continuous value generation throughout the year. Snow and ice management services cover winter payroll and allow for special projects. This is a unique opportunity to partner in the ownership and operation of a business with a proven track record of resilience and profitability.

As a Partner & CEO, you'll benefit from a competitive compensation structure that includes substantial equity in the company, allowing you to build significant wealth as the business grows, alongside attractive bonus opportunities.

What You Can Expect

  • Strategic Partnership & Support: While you'll be the ultimate decision-maker, you'll gain access to Mainshares Capital's robust platform of services, advisors, and vendors. This includes mentorship and guidance from seasoned owners and operators in the landscaping and nursery sectors, providing valuable insights as you manage a high-impact business.
  • Uncapped Growth Potential: This opportunity offers the chance to directly impact the trajectory of a successful operation, driving significant growth by expanding service offerings and market reach. You'll have the autonomy to implement strategies that unlock new revenue streams and grow the company's portfolio, with the financial rewards of ownership directly tied to your success.
  • Meaningful Ownership & Impact: You'll be at the helm of a respected business, making critical operational and strategic decisions. Your leadership will directly shape the company's future, its impact on clients, and the well-being of its employees, embodying our mission to foster robust small businesses.

About The Opportunity

This company is a unique player in the landscaping industry due to its dual focus. The business model is highly resilient, leveraging its nursery operations during slower landscaping periods to maintain productivity and revenue. Its strategic pivot to focus on ice management has created a reliable source of income during the winter months, ensuring continuous value generation and covering winter payroll. The business is ready for a dedicated leader with a vision to build upon its legacy and expand its market presence.

Who We Are Looking For

We're searching for a highly driven, detail-oriented leader who possesses the entrepreneurial spirit and a genuine interest in nurseries, plants, and the environment in general . A typical landscaping general contractor wouldn't be a good fit, as this role requires expertise in both the service and horticulture sides of the business. Experience with municipal tenders is a significant plus, as this business has a proven track record of success in this area. This role requires a hands-on approach to strategic planning, operational execution, and team leadership.

Essential Qualifications

  • Industry Leadership: 10+ years of comprehensive experience in the landscaping and/or nursery industry, with a proven track record of managing and scaling operations.
  • Operational Excellence: Deep understanding and hands-on experience with both landscaping services (including snow/ice management) and nursery operations (e.g., plant cultivation, inventory management).
  • Business Development Acumen: Demonstrated success in client relationship management, securing new projects or accounts, and a strong ability to identify and capitalize on market opportunities, especially in the area of municipal tenders.
  • Team Leadership: Proven experience in leading and motivating a team, fostering a productive and knowledgeable work environment.
  • Financial & Business Management: Significant experience in small business management, including budgeting, financial analysis, P&L responsibility, and strategic planning to maximize profitability.
  • Technical Proficiency: In-depth knowledge of various plant types, landscaping techniques, and best practices in both nursery and service operations.

Ready to take the next step in your career and become a partner and CEO of a thriving landscaping and nursery business? We invite you to explore this exciting opportunity.

Location Disclaimer - This is an opportunity to grow a Mainshares acquisition business. The exact location of the acquisition target will be disclosed in the interview process. Relocation may be required for this role.
