** Since 1892, Shepherd Electric Supply has been the first call when complex, time-critical electrical challenges need to be solved and reliability truly matters. We move materials accurately and on time so contractors stay on schedule, projects stay on track, and customers never have to wonder if we’ll come through.

Our success comes from people who take pride in doing things the right way — safely, accurately, and with care for teammates and customers alike. If you want to do work that matters at a company that notices, this is the place.

When quotes are accurate, products are identified quickly, and customers feel taken care of, they come back. This role protects revenue, builds loyalty, and strengthens the relationships that drive Shepherd’s growth.

This is not a passive role. You are the first voice and the last impression. Every interaction is an opportunity to demonstrate that Shepherd shows up — and keeps showing up.
