Best Wash Laundromats — a founder-led chain of 38+ locations across St. Louis, Kansas City, Memphis, and Central Illinois — is hiring a Chief Operating Officer with a defined path to CEO. This isn't a training program or a leadership track: you get the COO title on day one, full P&L ownership across a $5–10M EBITDA platform, and EBITDA participation that scales as you grow the business. We started as a search, and we are still operating, the unit economics are proven, and your job is to scale the business. If you want to look back in ten years and point to something you actually built, read the full posting.

Could not be a bigger advocate of this team. Just had a conversation with them yesterday. They have a fantastic approach to growth and it shows. This is a great opportunity and worth looking into.
