This is a full-time position.
The role is for a small business in the Greater Portland metro area in the retail automotive accessories and installation industry.
Responsibilities include serving as president, determining business strategy, operations, and P&L management, leading an experienced team, driving revenue growth, managing HR, analyzing practices, building relationships, transitioning to employee ownership, and leading growth initiatives.
The role requires an entrepreneurial business leader to run the business, own full P&L responsibility, lead employee-owners, handle HR matters, drive revenue growth, and foster an owner’s mindset.
Teamshares emphasizes employee ownership, transitioning businesses to employee-owners with an immediate 10% stake, instilling an owner’s mindset, fostering positive company culture, and supporting growth through software, education, and leadership support.
Facilitates employee ownership of small businesses
Teamshares facilitates employee ownership of small businesses, focusing on those whose owners are nearing retirement. The company purchases these businesses and gradually transfers ownership to the employees, starting with 10% of the stock and increasing to 80% over 20 years. This approach helps maintain business continuity and prevents job losses that can occur when a business is sold to an outside buyer. Teamshares generates revenue from the profits of the businesses it acquires and also offers proprietary software, education, and financial products. By promoting employee ownership, Teamshares not only supports the financial stability of employees but also strengthens the local economy by preserving small businesses. The company differentiates itself by recruiting mission-driven leaders for the acquired businesses and providing them with extensive training.
