What are the responsibilities and job description for the Branch Parts Operations Manager — Material Handling position at Weisiger Group?
Join LiftOne. Build What Lasts.
LiftOne is a third-generation, family-owned organization grounded in trust, integrity, and a drive to help customers and teammates succeed. We invest in our people, facilities, and technology because we power the supply chain that delivers essential goods to homes and businesses. As a privately held company, our scale plus strong values make us a trailblazer built for the long haul.
If you’re a hands-on leader who loves new challenges, thrives in a team environment, and wants real opportunities to grow, you’ll feel at home here.
A Day in the Life
Morning starts with a pulse check: you review daily quote activity from parts sales representatives and make sure every customer who received a quote today gets timely follow-up by afternoon. From there, you coach the team—sharpening product knowledge, reinforcing sales techniques, and connecting our company story to customer value.
Late morning, you build targeted sales programs. You map out campaigns for items like pallet jacks and electric walkies, craft competitive strategies for users of other truck brands to position Unisource and alternative parts at the right price, and equip the road service force with offers that move lift truck parts and allied products.
After lunch, you’re analyzing management reports, tuning stock orders for non-Hyster lines (Ottawa, Linde, CAT, TVH, etc.), and steering inventory health—reducing obsolescence, balancing consignment stock, and ensuring technicians’ truck inventories are replenished and ready for the next call.
Before the day wraps, you keep customer operations humming: processing orders, filing parts warranties, managing vendor returns and credits, supporting service department parts requests, auditing counts from physical inventory, and approving invoices. You close the loop by documenting what’s in stock, what shipped to customers, and by planning budgets that keep the department on target. Along the way, you recruit, train, conduct annual reviews, and build a winning parts team. And yes—other duties as assigned keep things interesting.
