CHIEF OF STAFF, Value Creation

Fortify Companies

Location: Kennesaw, GA or Portsmouth, NH.

Reports to: CEO

About Us

Fortify's roots are in restoration, and that foundation gives us credibility with carriers and policyholders alike.

But we believe restoration alone isn't enough. The industry performs better when loss is prevented where possible and response is coordinated when it's not. Fortify is building a platform that aligns insurance carriers, property owners, and service providers across prevention, response, restoration, and rebuild.

Through Fortify's growing portfolio of operating companies—including Rytech, Insurcomm, and additional businesses we will bring into the ecosystem—this alignment is delivered at scale.

The Role

The Chief of Staff, Value Creation is the CEO's right hand in driving value creation across the Fortify portfolio.

This role leads the design, execution, and governance of value creation initiatives across acquired and organic growth platforms. It ensures that the most important strategic and operational levers are identified, resourced, sequenced, and delivered.

This is not a reporting function. While the role owns cadence, scorecards, and board materials, its primary responsibility is outcomes — ensuring that Fortify realizes the full revenue, margin, and strategic potential of each investment.
