Customer Communication

• Provide customers with accurate arrival windows, technician updates, and follow-up communication
• Handle rescheduling, complaints, and service-related questions with professionalism and urgency
• Other job duties as assigned

Requirements:

• 2+ years of experience in dispatch, scheduling, call center, or field service coordination (residential trades - garage door, HVAC, plumbing, electrical - a strong plus)
• Prior hands-on experience as a residential garage door technician or in a related trade preferred

• Basic computer skills (navigating multiple systems/tabs, email, data entry)
