Entrepreneurial Operators Only. No Career Consultants.
We're not just "hiring". We're looking for a specific type of operator who has lived the founder journey. This isn't a typical job. It's a role for a seasoned leader who can work side-by-side with founders of boutique service firms, translating their big ideas into the systems, strategies, and accountability that drive real, sustainable growth.
The Mission: Freeing the Founder.
As an Embedded Leadership Partner on our team, you're the "how" to the founder's "what." Your day-to-day focus will be:
Own the Execution: You don't just make plans; you install them. You take immediate ownership of the day-to-day chaos so the founder can return to strategy.
Build the Machine: You design the "boring" but vital systems: financial governance, people operations, and delivery workflows; that allow the firm to scale without breaking.
Speak Hard Truths: You are a peer, not a subordinate. You have the courage to tell a founder what they need to hear, not what they want to hear.
Design Your Replacement: Your goal isn't to stay forever. It is to build a high-performing leadership team and train an internal successor so the business can eventually run without you.
The Pemmerations Standard.
We don't just hire based on resumes; we hire based on DNA. You belong here if:
You Have Real Scars: You have sat in the seat of a $5M-$20M firm. You have navigated cash crunches, hiring failures, and rapid scaling. You operate from experience, not theory.
You Have an Owner’s Mindset: Whether you are a former founder or a proven intrapreneur, you treat the client’s P&L like your own. You don't wait for permission to solve problems.
You Are Methodology Agnostic: You know EOS®, OKRs, and Scaling Up, but you aren't dogmatic. You apply the right tool for the specific bottleneck.
You Are Low-Ego / High-Impact: You don't need the credit. You get satisfaction from seeing the founder succeed and the machine run smoothly.
How to Apply.
We don't use job portals, and we don't book meetings based on a resume alone. We look for intentionality. If you believe you are an Embedded Leadership Partner, send an email to howdy@pemmerations.com with three things:
Your LinkedIn Profile.
Your Resume.
The "Operator" Cover Letter: Don't tell us you are "results-oriented." Tell us about a specific founder bottleneck you broke. Show us you understand the difference between consulting and embedding.
We read every email that follows these instructions. We delete the ones that don't.

Free the founder, and you liberate everyone connected to the business.
