Why surf the wave with roadsurfer?
Become part of the #roadsurferfamily and work in a company culture where you are part of an open, fast-growing team with ambitious goals and positive team spirit. We stick together and combine a brutal hands-on mentality with fun at work! It means shaping the future of outdoor travel and building an ecosystem for sustainable outdoor travel.

The role - your passion

Your responsibilities include but are not limited to the following:

As our Parts & Service Specialist you’ll own the sourcing, ordering, and inventory work that keeps our RV techs across North America moving. You'll identify the right parts, find the best suppliers, and keep our repair operations running smoothly — and you'll spend time in the shop too, taking a fully hands on approach with the same vehicles you're supplying parts for. Successful candidates must have experience in both areas. This position requires fully hands on approach and ability to hit the ground running.

This dual hybrid role will work out of our Calgary station for technician work and can work from home on certain days to focus on being our Parts Specialist. This position includes a combination of RV technician duties and parts ordering/supply chain responsibilities as required by business needs. There may be days where you are working from the station and need to provide parts ordering support or working from home and are needed to go into the station for an urgent repair. A successful candidate is flexible and accommodating to the business needs.

📦 Parts & Supply Chain

• Oversee our computerized parts catalog system and maintain a running inventory of regular and special-order parts and supplies

• You share responsibility for the technical condition of our RVs

• You independently perform minor repairs on our vehicles and pass on your knowledge to station employees so that they can carry out repairs themselves to some extent

• You actively participate in shaping your work environment, are enthusiastic about new projects, and contribute your ideas

• Track all parts and materials used in repairs or replacements

• Knowledge in trade field (Automotive, HVAC, Electrical, Carpentry, Plumbing, Maintenance, etc.) and plus

• Track parts and materials used in every repair (closing the loop with your parts-side work)

What makes you a great fit

• You like solving problems — whether it's fixing something or figuring out what's needed to fix it.

• You take ownership and don't wait to be told what to do.
