Customer service professionals—this is an exceptional opportunity for a fulfilling career with a global industrial distribution leader that offers more than just taking orders and handling complaints. You will assist our clients with expert guidance on a variety of inquiries and issues. Unlike typical CSR roles, you will cultivate ongoing business relationships with our customers through consistent communication and consultation. In this service and parts center, our ability to attract and retain clients often hinges on your capacity to swiftly and effectively provide them with the precise parts and/or solutions they require—especially during critical equipment failures.

  • Process quotes, accept orders, and provide post-order support
  • Perform various warehouse tasks, including receiving and verifying incoming materials, maintaining stock areas, preparing sales orders, and delivering orders, stock, and supplies. Ensure accuracy in merchandise verification
  • Follow a daily schedule, work orders, and verbal and written instructions
  • Operate motor trucks, hand and mobile lift equipment, simple hand and power tools, weighing scales, and postage meters
  • Drive company vehicles to pick up and deliver orders, equipment, and mail as needed. Plan the most efficient routes for assignments
  • Maintain a clean driving record

Specific qualifications for this role include:

  • 6 months of customer service experience preferred
  • A willingness to expand knowledge in industrial distribution products
  • Excellent telephone communication skills
  • Ability and eagerness to learn new systems and processes quickly
  • Enjoy working with computers, including basic knowledge of Microsoft Office (particularly Outlook & Excel) and comfort with Google search engine
