Build Your Career in the Equipment Industry

Do you enjoy working with equipment, solving problems, and helping customers find the right solution? Are you the person who can look at a part, figure out what it goes to, and track down the right replacement?

Tri-State Bobcat is looking for a Parts Specialist to join our Little Canada team. This is a hands-on, customer-facing role where you'll work with customers, service technicians, and a wide range of equipment and parts-including Bobcat, Toro, STIHL, and other leading brands.

You'll play a key role in keeping our service department moving-getting the right parts to the right people at the right time while providing a great experience for our customers.

If you have mechanical aptitude, enjoy helping people, and like a job where every day is a little different, we'd like to meet you.

What You'll Do

• Help walk-in, phone, and text customers identify and purchase the right parts, accessories, and supplies


• Provide parts pricing, availability, and basic product information


• Work closely with service technicians to identify, source, order, and allocate parts efficiently so repairs stay on schedule


• Look up parts across multiple equipment lines, manufacturers, and vendor systems


• Manage parts inventory by receiving, verifying, organizing, stocking, and accurately allocating parts to inventory bins, customers, and service jobs


• Monitor inventory levels and help identify parts that need to be reordered


• Assist customers with Toro and STIHL equipment by helping with product selection, features, accessories, and basic operation.


• Identify opportunities to recommend related parts, accessories, and products based on customer needs

• Experience in parts, equipment, automotive, small engine, powersports, agriculture, construction, or a related industry preferred

• Ability to stay organized and prioritize in a fast-paced environment


• Dependable and able to follow through on customer and technician requests from start to finish
