Nexstar Network - IT Platform Support Specialist

Who we are

We know you want a phenomenal career. We know you want a career with growth opportunities, work/life flexibility, and great benefits. We also know you want to care about what you do; you want to make a difference in people's lives through your day-to-day work.

At Nexstar Network, we believe that a phenomenal career is possible. We're a member-owned organization devoted to providing leadership and coaching and training to residential service companies across the U.S., Canada, and beyond. That's right: since 1992, we've been working with owners of plumbing, heating, cooling, and electrical businesses to help them grow to their fullest potential.

We'll help you grow to your fullest potential, too. Imagine coming to work for a company that offers both in-person collaboration and work from home flexibility because we know both are important. Imagine being able to casually walk into your CEO's office to share an idea you'd like to try. Imagine knowing your voice matters at work, and you're supported in your role by others who love to serve.

Are you imagining it? Good. We're waiting to meet you at Nexstar.
