DEPARTMENT Permitting
REPORTS TO Lance Nossen, Managing Director
LOCATION 1250 S Pine Island Rd, Suite 400, Plantation, FL 33324
CLASSIFICATION Exempt, Full-Time
SALARY RANGE $105,000 – $135,000 (commensurate with experience)
ABOUT INSPECTED
Inspected is a fast-growing, tech-enabled construction technology company revolutionizing remote inspections and permitting for the construction industry. We serve homebuilders, HVAC, solar, roofing, pool, and commercial and residential contractors across Florida, Texas, North Carolina, and beyond — with additional markets launching soon.
Our proprietary platform, Permit Hub, is transforming a process that once took months into one that takes days. Inspected has performed over 250,000 remote inspections to date and is one of South Florida's fastest-growing companies, with 100% growth for three consecutive years. As we expand into new states, our permitting function is one of the most critical engines of that growth — and we are building the leadership team to match.
POSITION SUMMARY
Inspected is seeking an experienced, organized, and growth-minded Director of Permitting to lead and scale our permitting operations nationally. This is a senior leadership role responsible for owning the full permitting lifecycle — from permit application submission and municipal coordination through approval, inspection scheduling, and final closeout — across our existing Florida headquarters division and a rapidly expanding multi-state footprint. This role requires true multi-trade permitting depth: the successful candidate will have hands-on experience permitting across multiple modalities — including doors and windows, HVAC, roofing, water heaters, solar, pools, electrical and plumbing updates or repairs, and other home improvement projects that require permits — and the ability to oversee teams and playbooks that handle each trade’s unique requirements.
The Director of Permitting will oversee and lead the permitting teams for each new market — Texas, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia — while maintaining the operational excellence and speed our Florida contractors depend on. This is a strategic leadership role, not a hands-on production role. You will set the organizational structure and direction, make sure the right workflows, training, and playbooks are in place, and oversee the hiring that scales with the company — with a Permitting Manager running day-to-day operations and reporting directly to you.
This role is critical to Inspected's multi-state expansion strategy. Each new market requires jurisdiction-specific registration, municipal relationship-building, and a dedicated permitting team before inspections can begin. The Director of Permitting oversees that pipeline from market entry to full operational capacity, with the Permitting Manager driving day-to-day execution.
