About Us

24 Hour Flood Pros is a rapidly growing national disaster mitigation company specializing in water, fire, mold, and specialty drying services. We partner closely with insurance carriers, plumbers, property managers, and referral partners to provide fast, professional, and well-documented mitigation services.

We are expanding operations in the Raleigh market and are seeking a hands-on Project Manager – Water Mitigation to help build, manage, and scale mitigation operations from the ground up.

Position Summary

The Project Manager – Water Mitigation is responsible for building, managing, and scaling water mitigation projects from start to finish. This is a hands-on leadership role requiring someone who can perform field work while also managing operations, customer relationships, scheduling, documentation, and job profitability as the business grows.

In the initial phase, this role will personally handle all aspects of mitigation projects, including emergency response, field work, customer communication, job documentation, and billing. As volume increases, the role will transition into a leadership position with responsibility for coordinating technicians, enforcing SOPs, and overseeing multiple active projects.

This is not a desk role. Success requires urgency, accountability, strong operational discipline, and the ability to execute in the field while helping build a scalable, profitable mitigation operation.
