An established commercial refrigeration service company is seeking an experienced Service Manager to lead service operations, support a team of field technicians, and serve as a key operational partner to ownership as the company continues to grow.

This role is ideal for someone who rose through the ranks as a technician and understands both the technical and operational aspects of refrigeration service. The owner currently fills this role and is seeking a trusted professional to take ownership of day-to-day service operations, allowing him to focus on other areas of the business.

The company performs 100% service work, specializing primarily in commercial refrigeration (approximately 80%) with additional HVAC service (20%). They do not perform any hot side work, allowing the team to stay focused on refrigeration and HVAC systems.

This is an excellent opportunity for a seasoned refrigeration professional who enjoys leading a team while remaining connected to the technical side of the business.

The Service Manager will oversee daily service operations and provide technical leadership to technicians while maintaining strong customer relationships.

This is a hands‑on leadership role that combines operational coordination with field support. The position involves a mix of office and field responsibilities, with roughly half of the time spent managing service operations, scheduling, and customer communication, and the other half spent supporting technicians and visiting job sites when needed.

Because the company provides critical service support to commercial customers, this role also carries 24/7 on‑call responsibility to assist technicians or respond to urgent customer needs when issues arise.

• Manage day‑to‑day service operations and technician scheduling
• Provide technical support and troubleshooting assistance to field technicians
• Support technicians via phone and visits to job sites and customers to ensure service quality and resolve issues where needed
• Maintain strong customer relationships and address service concerns
• Prepare and manage service‑related quotes and proposals, working directly with customers to diagnose needs, scope work, and provide effective solutions
• Assist technicians with complex refrigeration and HVAC diagnostics
• Ensure service work is completed safely and efficiently
• Support technician development and maintain a positive team culture
• Communicate with ownership regarding operational improvements and service performance

• Minimum 15 years of experience in commercial refrigeration, including hands‑on technician experience and strong diagnostic and troubleshooting expertise
• 3–5+ years of experience as a Service Manager or similar leadership role
• Strong understanding of service operations, scheduling, and technician coordination
• Experience working directly with commercial customers and managing service relationships
• Strong communication and leadership skills
• Ability to balance operational coordination with field support

• Experience with Electrofreeze ice cream/shake machines
• Experience servicing older refrigeration systems
• Experience managing or mentoring technicians in a service environment

The company takes pride in maintaining a respectful and collaborative work environment.

The ideal candidate will be:

• Honest and transparent
• Kind and respectful toward coworkers and customers
• Accountable and willing to own mistakes
• Technically strong but team‑oriented
• A supportive leader who helps technicians succeed

The company maintains a strong “no‑ego” culture where teamwork, accountability, and respect are highly valued.

• Medical insurance
• Vision insurance
• 401(k) retirement plan (often with employer match)
