  • Monitor technician schedules, job progress, and route efficiency in real time
  • Provide technicians with accurate job details, scope, and customer expectations
  • Ensure jobs are properly documented, completed, and ready for billing
  • Review work orders for accuracy, including not-to-exceed limits, materials, and labor
  • Communicate updates, delays, and issues proactively to customers
  • Assist in troubleshooting scheduling conflicts and last-minute changes
  • Support technicians in the field with logistics, directions, and job information
  • Maintain accurate records of calls, schedules, and job activity in dispatch software
  • Ensure all required job checklists, photos, and documentation are completed
  • Help drive customer satisfaction through clear communication and follow-up

What We’re Looking For

  • Dispatch experience in a service-based or trade environment (REQUIRED)
  • Experience in Plumbing, HVAC, Electrical, or similar field service industry strongly preferred
  • Strong understanding of how field technicians operate day-to-day
  • Ability to prioritize and make quick decisions under pressure
  • Excellent communication skills, both with customers and field teams
  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail
  • Comfortable managing multiple jobs, schedules, and priorities at once
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to think on your feet
  • Experience with dispatching or field service software is a plus
