General Manager & Future Equity Partner – Sound Move Solutions (Seattle Area)
Build a moving company you’ll own a piece of.
We’re looking for a moving professional who wants more than a paycheck. We want someone ready to run the business, grow it, and earn ownership along the way. This isn’t a typical management job. The founder will be a silent partner who checks in quarterly. Day to day, this is your company to lead.
The opportunity:
Step into an operating business with existing trucks, crew, and recurring work
Grow into a niche market: moves for home staging companies, plus small residential and commercial moves
Earn equity over time as you build the company
Make the decisions. You set the direction, and the founder supports you from the background.
Operations
Run daily operations: scheduling, dispatch, crew assignments, and fleet management
Make sure every move is safe, on time, and handled with care, especially high-value staging furniture and décor
Manage truck leases, equipment, supplies, and vendor relationships
Keep the company compliant with Washington household goods mover regulations, DOT requirements, and insurance
Sales & Growth
Keep and strengthen our relationship with a large staging company, our anchor client
Win new contracts with other staging companies, designers, and real estate professionals
Develop and close small residential and commercial moving work
Price jobs, write estimates, and build repeat business
People & Training
Lead, hire, and develop a crew of 10 and grow the team as demand increases
Build training programs for safe handling, furniture protection, and customer service
Create a culture where good movers want to stay
Business Management
Own the P&L, budgeting, and financial performance
Set up systems for booking, invoicing, and tracking
Prepare quarterly reviews for the founding partner
Several years of experience in the moving industry, including leadership or operations management
A proven sales record, comfortable both building relationships and closing deals
Experience training and managing crews
Working knowledge of mover compliance, safety, and licensing
Comfort with numbers: pricing, budgets, and profitability
An entrepreneurial mindset. You act like an owner because you want to be one.
Bonus: experience with staging, high-end furniture, or white-glove moves
Compensation
$83,000 - $100,000 yearly
Sound Move Solutions is a new Seattle-area moving company launching with a real head start. You’ll have 3 trucks, a trained crew of 10, and a steady base of work from day one through our partner company, a large home staging company. We specialize in the moves other companies overlook: staging furniture and décor, plus small residential and commercial jobs that need careful, reliable crews. We’re building a company where great movers want to stay and where the person who leads it shares in its success.
