Job Description

We are seeking a motivated Parker Store Representative to support the daily operations of our Parker Store. This role combines customer service, technical sales, inventory coordination, and order management in a fast-paced industrial retail environment.

What matters most is finding someone who is curious, motivated to learn, comfortable with technology, and willing to put in the work to help customers solve problems.

If you enjoy helping customers, learning technical products, and taking initiative in a hands-on environment, this role provides an excellent opportunity to grow in the industrial distribution and fluid power industry.

  • Serve as the primary contact for designated customer accounts, supporting on-time delivery and account needs.
  • Collaborate with outside sales and internal teams to optimize customer satisfaction.
  • Communicate with suppliers regarding pricing, availability, and delivery.
  • Promote value-added solutions such as assemblies, kitting, and service offerings.
  • Maintain accurate inventory and support stock management activities.
  • Ensure store appearance, merchandising, and organization meet standards.
  • Utilize ERP and customer/supplier portals to manage orders and information.
  • Support store sales goals by achieving margin and revenue targets.
  • Respond promptly to customer inquiries and resolve product or order issues.
