Lyons Heritage Masonry

Operations Manager

Location: Toronto, ON -- field-based position overseeing projects throughout the Greater Toronto Area and surrounding communities.

One Standard.

Every

Stage.

Lyons Heritage Masonry combines heritage craft with contemporary project execution. Our work spans assessment, restoration, conservation, reimagination, installation, and custom masonry, with the goal of creating one consistent standard from the first conversation through final completion. The company's internal values are Authenticity, Accountability, Love for the Work, and Continued Service, and those standards shape how we manage people, projects, clients, and problems.

Why Lyons Heritage Masonry?

Lyons is working toward becoming a fully integrated heritage masonry partner, with one standard carried across every stage of the work. That requires operations to be as considered as the masonry itself. In this role, you will have the opportunity to build stronger systems, support skilled crews, create a better client experience, and help ensure that the finished work reflects both the architectural intent and the company's standard of craft.

The Operations Manager is responsible for turning sold work into well-run projects.

You will oversee scheduling, crew coordination, job performance, client communication, quality control, documentation, and operational systems across multiple active projects.

Lyons is a solution-focused company. Problems will occur in construction; the expectation is that they are identified early, owned, and resolved rather than passed to somebody else.



This position is suited to someone who can bring structure and accountability to a growing company while respecting the craftsmanship and architectural intent behind the work.

- Oversee quality inspections and deficiency correction.
- Investigate recurring issues and solve root causes rather than repeatedly correcting symptoms.
- Coordinate job closeout, punch lists, documentation, and client sign-off.
- Support field hiring, onboarding, performance management, and employee development.
- Coordinate required employee training and certifications.
- Build and document SOPs and operational procedures.
- Provide structured weekly operational reporting to company leadership.
