• Expedite critical parts when required to support field operations.
• Identify opportunities to improve purchasing and vendor pricing.
• Ensure parts purchases are properly assigned to the appropriate work order, project, or inventory account.
• Manage the day-to-day operation and organization of the New England warehouse.
• Direct and support warehouse personnel.
• Maintain a clean, organized, safe, and professional warehouse.
• Coordinate deliveries and movement of equipment and material between the warehouse, vendors, and job sites.
• Maintain an accurate inventory of company-owned parts, materials, tools, and consumables.
• Ensure inventory transactions are accurately entered into company systems.
• Maintain appropriate stock of commonly used HVAC service materials and consumables.
• Own the warranty parts process from submission through final credit or replacement.
• Coordinate warranty claims with manufacturers and distributors.
• Track warranty parts, cores, and required returns.
• Ensure defective and unused material is returned promptly.
• Track outstanding vendor credits and confirm credits are received.
• Maintain organized documentation for warranty claims and returns.
• Prevent warranty claims, cores, and returnable material from aging without resolution.
• Work closely with Service, Dispatch, and field technicians to ensure material is available before scheduled work.
• Coordinate technician parts pickups and job-site deliveries.
• Help resolve emergency and same-day parts requirements.
• Ensure technicians receive the correct parts and quantities for assigned work.
• Serve as the main point of contact for parts status on any work order, working closely with the assigned dispatcher.
• Provide parts ETAs to dispatch promptly upon request, so accurate appointment dates can be scheduled based on part and technician availability.
• Directly manage the Parts and Warehouse team.
• Establish clear responsibilities and performance expectations.
• Hold the team accountable for timely ordering, receiving, staging, returns, and inventory accuracy.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in parts, warehouse, purchasing, inventory, logistics, or service operations.
