- Parts Coordination: Work with the Parts Department to ensure required parts are available for timely service delivery.
- Account Management: Create and maintain customer profiles with accurate, up-to-date information.
- Financial Awareness: Understand credit and collections protocols and handle customer interactions appropriately.

- Technical Acumen: Familiarity with commercial kitchen equipment and/or HVAC/R systems is a strong plus.
- Organization & Focus: Ability to prioritize tasks in a fast-moving environment with constant changes.

- Team Player: You can work independently, but also collaborate effectively with technicians, managers, and fellow peers across departments.
Why Join Us?
We’re a team that values initiative, adaptability, and excellence. As a Dispatcher, you’ll play a vital role in keeping our service operations efficient and our customers happy. You’ll also enjoy opportunities for growth in a supportive, hands-on environment where no two days are the same.
