Use your mechanical aptitude to help customers find the right industrial solutions.

We're looking for an Industrial Parts Specialist to support customers by identifying products, preparing quotes, processing orders, and helping solve day-to-day equipment and maintenance challenges.

This is not a cold-calling sales role. Instead, you'll work directly with customers who need hoses, fittings, adapters, valves, and other industrial components to keep their operations running. If you've worked around equipment, parts, maintenance, repairs, manufacturing, construction materials, or industrial products, this could be a great fit.

Whether you've been a parts specialist, service advisor, mechanic, maintenance technician, or worked in industrial distribution, we're looking for someone who understands how mechanical components work together and enjoys helping customers find solutions.

What We're Looking For
  • Mechanical aptitude and an interest in industrial products

Why This Opportunity?
