• Collaborate with Operations and Service teams to ensure successful project execution.
• Coordinate customer needs, project schedules, and equipment requirements.
• Maintain accurate customer notes, service reports, and sales activity records.
• Identify additional service and product opportunities through on-site customer interactions.
• Represent Belt Power professionally while delivering exceptional customer service.

• Strong customer service and relationship-building skills.
• Excellent communication and problem-solving abilities.
• Ability to travel to customer locations and work in industrial environments.
• Valid driver's license and clean driving record.
• Ability to lift up to 50 pounds and work in physically demanding environments.
• Willingness to work overtime, weekends, and occasional overnight travel as needed.
