Description

Planned Companies – Chief Revenue Officer

About Planned Companies

Planned Companies is one of the nation's fastest-growing providers of integrated real estate services, delivering best-in-class janitorial, maintenance, concierge/front desk, security, and healthcare environmental services. For more than 125 years and through four generations of family leadership, we have built our reputation on exceptional service, operational excellence, and long-term client relationships.

Today, our 4,500+ associates serve clients across 11 states supporting some of the country's most respected commercial office buildings, residential communities, healthcare systems, schools, and mixed-use developments.

As we continue our next phase of growth, we are seeking a transformational Chief Revenue Officer who will help shape the future of our organization.

Position Summary

The Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) is responsible for leading Planned Companies' sales and marketing organization while driving sustainable, profitable revenue growth across all business lines.

This is not a traditional executive leadership position focused primarily on oversight and delegation. We are seeking a highly engaged, hands-on leader who is passionate about building organizations, coaching and developing sales talent, strengthening client relationships, analyzing data, and personally participating in winning new business. This leader will be expected to work alongside the sales team—helping them sharpen their approach, navigate opportunities, improve performance, and ultimately become stronger, more effective sales professionals.

The successful candidate will possess deep industry expertise, an established network of executive relationships, exceptional commercial instincts, and a passion for continuous improvement. They will be equally comfortable sitting with a salesperson reviewing an opportunity in CRM/ Sales Operating System, presenting to a prospective client, evaluating sales, marketing and account risk analytics, implementing AI solutions, or developing long-term growth strategy with the executive leadership team. 

This role is best suited for an executive who enjoys being in the business every day—working alongside the sales team, engaging with clients, analyzing performance data, and continuously improving the systems, processes, and people that drive growth.

The CRO will lead by example, establish a culture of accountability, and build a scalable sales organization capable of supporting Planned Companies' long-term growth objectives.
