Our client, a respected and growing industrial equipment manufacturer, is seeking a Parts & Service Manager to lead and elevate their aftermarket operations. This is a highly visible leadership role reporting directly to the President, responsible for overseeing service, parts, and customer support functions while helping shape long-term growth strategy.
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
- Lead and develop a team of 7-10 direct reports
- 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
- Identify and cultivate strategic partnerships to expand service capabilities and revenue streams
- Improve systems, processes, and KPIs across service delivery and parts distribution
- Support sales initiatives through technical expertise and consultative customer engagement
- Monitor performance metrics and implement continuous improvement initiatives
Projects You'll Work On
- Evaluating and optimizing field service structure and deployment strategy
- Building scalable parts inventory and supply chain processes
- Strengthening customer service programs and preventative maintenance offerings
- Establishing and expanding strategic vendor and service partnerships
- Enhancing revenue generation through service contracts and aftermarket programs
- Implementing performance metrics to drive operational accountability

- Proven ability to manage and develop technical teams
- Strong customer-facing skills with a sales-oriented mindset
- Technical background within industrial equipment, machinery, manufacturing, or similar industries
- Experience managing P&L or departmental budgets
- Comfort with regular travel across North America
- Engineering background is a plus, but not required
- Strategic thinker who can balance day-to-day execution with long-term planning
Why This Role Stands Out
- 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
- Stable, growth-oriented organization with a strong industry reputation
- 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.
