This opportunity is ideal for a technically grounded leader who thrives in customer-facing environments, enjoys developing people, and sees service operations as both a performance engine and a revenue driver.

In the first year, this role will require approximately 50% travel (primarily across the U.S. and Canada) as you build relationships and assess field operations. Long-term travel expectations average closer to 25%.

What You'll Own

• Oversee daily operations of service and parts functions, ensuring responsiveness, quality, and profitability
• Drive customer satisfaction and retention through proactive relationship management
• Partner with executive leadership to enhance aftermarket strategy and long-term service growth

• Direct access to executive leadership and influence over company strategy
• High base compensation with strong discretionary bonus structure
• Opportunity to shape and modernize service operations

• Significant ownership and autonomy in building partnerships and improving processes

This is a rare opportunity for a service leader who wants both operational ownership and strategic impact.
