Orion Talent is currently recruiting transitioning or former military professionals for a Franchisee position with a leading playground construction company. Interviews will be held virtually.

Position Description: Franchisee (Project Manager)
Our Franchisees are dedicated and hard-working business owners who have a strict eye for detail and are dedicated to excellence. As a Franchisee, you are a real business owner. Our corporate team handles all of the sales and marketing for the company—you will be responsible building and hiring your own team, managing your own budget, and taking on projects across the country.

Position Details:
Locations: New England; New York; Pennsylvania; Missouri; Dallas, TX; Houston, TX.  Bottom line, flexible as long as you’re in the vicinity of those areas.
Salary: As a business owner, your salary is determined by how much business you take on and how well you manage your own budget. The average Franchisee probably takes home between $120-150k his/her first year, however, the sky is the limit. They’ve had Franchisees, who were willing to take on projects anywhere in the country, take home well over $200k in their first full year on the job.
Startup Costs: The total Franchisee Fee is $60k
• $10k is the minimum you are required to put down. There is in-house financing available to help cover the remainder.
• You will be also required to purchase a truck (if you don’t have one already) as well as your own tools to complete the projects. PP does not require you purchase a specific truck model—it just needs to look presentable and be serviceable. Additionally, many of the tools needed can most likely be found in your garage.

General Info:
• No prior experience necessary. PP will train you for everything you need to know, both in the office and in the field.
• Royalty fees are 13% of gross sales. If you put down the minimum $10k required for the Franchisee Fee, PP will take a 25% royalty fee until the entire Franchise Fee is paid off. At that point, it will drop to 13%.
• You are not responsible for purchasing the playground equipment. PP is strictly an installation company.
• You are more than welcome to advertise, but as mentioned previously, the sales and marketing are handled by corporate. This is a very unique industry where most of your advertising is through word of mouth and referrals. PP’s affiliate has been in the industry for 7 years and has never once placed an ad—not even in the yellow pages.
• You will be responsible for hiring your own crew. The recommended crew size is 2-3.
