Stage 2 startup growing - what it didn't have was the infrastructure and leadership to sustain and scale it. Christopher stepped in as CEO/COO and built PE-grade financial reporting, governance, and operating systems fast enough to keep pace with explosive demand. In under two years, the team scaled from 13 to 72, revenue grew over 1,000%, and EBITDA grew 100%+ annually while multi-market expansion was running in parallel. Company landed at INC 500 #16, a recognition that reflected not just the revenue, but the quality of the organization built behind it.

General Contractor was growing, but growth without operational discipline produces cost overruns, missed deadlines, and margin erosion. As EVP of Operations, Christopher built the infrastructure that allowed the company to scale without those consequences. Revenue grew from $30M to $80M, operational capacity improved by 60%, and cost overruns were cut by $1.5M, all while maintaining 100% on-time, on-budget delivery across the entire portfolio. The discipline wasn't about slowing growth down. It was about building systems that made growth predictable and scalable.

A family office brought Christopher in as board-appointed CEO with one mandate: stabilize a contractor in chaos, deliver a mission-critical $75M healthcare facility, and execute a clean strategic plan that led to the board decision to exit the business and focus on other “core” competencies. Within 60 days, operations were stabilized, the project was delivered on time, a new COO, CEO, and division leaders were recruited and onboarded, legacy compliance issues were resolved, and the board-directed wind-down was executed cleanly across HR, legal, PR, and regulatory agencies. The business was left stabilized, documented, and exit-ready; exactly as commissioned.

Companies operated across multiple home services markets, but the business units weren't functioning as one company; leadership needed unified visibility, reporting was inconsistent, and accountability lived in pockets rather than as a culture. Christopher came in as COO and EOS Integrator, implemented a company-wide accountability framework, built integrated KPI dashboards across every market, and standardized financial reporting and leadership communication from top to bottom. Every business unit grew 100% in under eight months. The growth didn't come from a new strategy, it came from finally being able to see and run the whole business with operations focus.

Late-stage startup - operating across eight fully vertically integrated divisions — Brokerage, Development, AEC, Finance, Manufacturing, Construction, Property Management, and Investor Relations — with a 1,100+ person workforce strategy/plan and a vendor ecosystem spanning 13 national professional services firms. Christopher was engaged as CEO and Integrator to design the enterprise operating architecture that would hold all of it together: workforce plans, a full accountability matrix, governance and compliance standards across every entity, vendor selection and oversight at national scale, and cross-entity reporting that gave leadership unified visibility across every division.
