Parts Coordinator/Service Manager

  • Job Tag: #LI-CT1
  • Posted: August 18,2025

Position Overview

We are seeking a reliable and experienced Parts Coordinator / Service Manager to take on a dual-role leadership position overseeing both the service department and the parts program that supports it. This role includes leading a team of six service technicians who split their responsibilities between field service at customer sites and in-house support, such as inventory, parts management, and backhouse needs.

The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, customer-focused environment where critical systems demand quick response times and precise solutions. The position requires balancing customer and contract satisfaction with team leadership, setting a standard of trust, accountability, and repeatable processes to ensure work is done both efficiently and effectively. Strong people skills and technical know-how are equally important—collaborating with the team, leveraging each person’s strengths, and fostering a culture where no task is too small.

This is a role where adding to the culture is just as important as operational excellence. The company has been established for decades and has experienced strong growth in recent years, but with a team of only about 25 employees, success still relies on buy-in, respect, and teamwork at every level.

This position also requires participation in an after-hours on-call rotation.
