Job description

At R & S Maintenance Service, having the right parts available at the right time makes a real difference. When a truck needs repairs, delays in locating parts or materials can mean more downtime for the customer.

We're looking for an Inventory Manager who can take ownership of our parts inventory, keep stock organized, and make sure our service team has what it needs to get the job done.

The position

You'll manage the day-to-day flow of parts, supplies, and materials used in our diesel repair and maintenance operations.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Monitor inventory levels and order parts before shortages affect repair work.
• Coordinate purchasing, deliveries, and returns with suppliers.
• Organize parts storage areas and maintain accurate inventory records.
• Track incoming and outgoing parts, tools, and maintenance supplies.
• Work with technicians and service staff to identify upcoming parts needs.
• Compare vendor pricing, availability, and delivery timelines.
• Conduct regular inventory counts and resolve discrepancies.
• Help reduce unnecessary purchases, excess stock, and wasted materials.
• Maintain records of purchase orders, invoices, warranties, and returns.
• Identify opportunities to improve inventory procedures and parts availability.

Experience that translates well

We're looking for someone with 3 or more years of experience in inventory management, automotive parts, warehouse operations, purchasing, supply chain, or a related field.

Experience with diesel trucks, commercial vehicles, heavy equipment, or repair-shop inventory is helpful, but it isn't required.

You should be comfortable using inventory software, maintaining accurate records, communicating with suppliers, and managing several priorities throughout the day.

Previous supervisory experience is preferred. A high school diploma or GED is required; additional training or a college degree is welcome but not necessary with relevant experience.

What success looks like

Parts are easy to locate. Inventory records are reliable. Orders arrive when they're needed. Technicians spend less time waiting for supplies, and the shop avoids unnecessary costs.

We're looking for someone who takes pride in keeping those details under control and understands how good inventory management supports the entire operation.
