Chief Operating Officer jobs in Ontario

The Opportunity

Park View Homes is looking for an experienced Operations & Sales Director to take ownership of the overall performance of our Operations and Sales functions.

Reporting directly to the CEO, this is a senior leadership opportunity for someone who can connect people, sales, operations, processes, and business performance to help drive the next stage of Park View Homes' growth.

The Operations & Sales Director will lead and hold the Operations and Sales teams accountable while ensuring strong alignment across Production, Scheduling, Estimating, Purchasing, Pre-Construction, Warranty, Health & Safety, and related functions.

The objective is simple:

Sell homes effectively. Deliver what we promise. Build a stronger, more scalable business.

The role combines two key seats on our Accountability Chart — Sales Manager and Operations Manager — into one senior leadership mandate.

This position is also designed as a precursor to a COO role, creating an opportunity for the right leader to take on increasing responsibility as the company continues to grow.

What You'll Own

➔ Leadership, Management & Accountability (LMA) — Leads, develops, and holds the Operations team accountable, ensuring the right people are in the right seats with clear expectations and strong performance.

➔ Operational Performance — Owns overall department performance to ensure homes are delivered on time, on budget, and to company standards.

➔ Department Planning & Coordination — Ensures Production, Scheduling, Estimating, Purchasing, Pre-Construction, Warranty, and related functions are aligned and working together effectively.

➔ Operational Systems & Continuous Improvement — Develops and improves processes, systems, standards, and tools that make the department more consistent, efficient, and scalable.

➔ Resource & Capacity Management — Ensures the department has the people, trade capacity, resources, and support required to execute the construction plan successfully.

➔ Health & Safety — Ensures an effective Health & Safety program is in place and consistently followed across the department, maintaining compliance, training, accountability, and safe operations.

➔ Sales Performance & Results — Owns overall sales results across all communities—driving traffic conversion, managing pipeline health, and ensuring sales targets are consistently met or exceeded.

➔ Sales Process & Conversion — Ensures a consistent, high-performing sales process with strong lead follow-up and closing.
