    Job Description

    Industrial Accounts Support Specialist

    Be the go-to partner for our industrial customers. You will manage accounts end-to-end—pricing, availability, shipping updates—and respond quickly via phone, email, and in-person interactions within an industrial distribution setting.

    A day in this role

    The line lights up with a request for a rush quote. You confirm availability, coordinate with inventory and the warehouse to minimize shipments and cost, and place an accurate order. A billing question comes in next—you take ownership, track down the root cause, and align the right teams to resolve it. You spot an add-on item that fits the customer’s application and recommend it, then follow up proactively so they always know where things stand.

    What you’ll handle

    • Receive, process, and coordinate customer orders, quotations, returns, and credits in line with company policies and standards.
    • Work cross-functionally with sales, credit, inventory control, warehousing, the fabrication shop, and other departments to meet customer needs.
    • Reduce shipment counts while controlling costs to satisfy delivery requirements.
    • Own and resolve order entry, shipping, and billing errors by partnering with the appropriate departments.
    • Build practical technical understanding of our products and services to streamline the order process.
    • Grow revenue by highlighting promotions and recommending complementary products at the point of order.
    • Follow up consistently so customers remain informed about the status of their requests.
    • Develop and sustain strong service-oriented relationships with customers and suppliers.
    • Complete the training curriculum and demonstrate proficiency as outlined by management.
    • Pitch in with other duties as assigned.

    Your toolkit

    • Comfort with business systems; experience with JDE and HydraList is preferred.
    • Microsoft Windows and Office familiarity is a plus.
    • Solid arithmetic skills, including whole numbers, fractions, decimals, and measurements.
    • Ability to read blueprints and/or measurements is preferred.

    What you’ll bring

    • Clear, professional verbal and written communication.
    • At least 1 year of customer service or sales experience.
    • 1+ year thriving in a multitask, time-sensitive environment.
