Job description

Description: Lead up to 10 express car wash sites, build the Site Managers who run them, and help take us to 30+ locations. You won’t do it alone. You’ll have dedicated HR and maintenance support in your district. The results are yours.

Who We Are

Bubble Down is a Tampa-based express car wash company. We built it to make car washes people’s new favorite subscription. That takes a standard higher than anywhere you’ve worked, at every site, every day.

What You’ll Own

• Customer first: The best car wash experience in Florida at every site.
• Perfect site, every day: Safety, wash quality, cleanliness and uptime, with no off days.
• Numbers that grow: NOI, car count, conversion and membership growth, with churn going down. You know them cold and you move them.
• Winning Site Managers: You coach, train and develop them, then hold them accountable.
• Right people, right shift: Every shift is staffed for great service and stays on budget.
• The bench: You spot talent early, so new sites open with leaders who are ready.

What The Job Really Looks Like

• Territory: Greater Tampa Bay, with new sites opening in Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda next year. Your district could grow to include them.
• In the field: Four days out of five, with about half a day at each site.
• Your cadence: Weekly visits to every site, weekly 1:1s with Site Managers, weekly sales calls, and daily labor review.
• Your schedule: Monday through Friday, with early starts. Car washes run weekends, holidays and all weather, so you’re reachable and on call when a site needs you. Our goal is that you never have to cover a shift. We staff with enough slack to move people between sites, but in a real emergency, you step in.
• Hands on: Your site teams and maintenance handle the day-to-day. When a site needs it, you step in, whether that’s cleaning trenches, hauling equipment, or working wet and dirty. No job is beneath the role.
• Physical: You’ll be on your feet outdoors for long stretches and move across uneven ground and equipment areas. You’ll bend, stoop, reach and lift up to 50lbs, with or without reasonable accommodation.
• On the road: Significant local and regional travel.

You’re a fit if you have

• 5+ years leading multiple sites at once in high-volume hourly operations, such as car wash, retail, service, QSR, fitness or automotive
• A track record of improving labor, NOI, retention or customer metrics across more than one location
• Strong financial skills across labor, P&L and staffing
• Proven discipline with checklists, deadlines and follow-through. Nothing you own slips.
• The backbone to stay steady with difficult staff and customers, and to stand behind your calls

Requirements

• Valid driver’s license, reliable vehicle, insurance and a clean driving record
• Must pass a background check

Pay And Benefits

• Base salary: $85,000–$100,000, based on experience
• Quarterly bonus: Tied to your district’s NOI
• Total target compensation: $100,000–$130,000
• Benefits: Medical, dental and vision coverage, a 401(k) with company match, paid time off, paid holidays, and mileage reimbursement
• Growth: Real room to grow into broader leadership as we expand across Florida

Bonus is based on district performance and isn’t guaranteed.
