Title: Operations Specialist Salary: Non-Exempt – Paid Weekly Hiring Manager: Amy Baugh, Service Business Manager Location: Brea, CA (On-Site) Estimated Pay Range: Min: $60K - Max: $80K Annually Job Summary: The Operations Specialist serves as the central coordinator for the Service Division, managing service work tickets from intake through invoicing and acting as the primary link between customers and the service team. This role supports daily operations by coordinating technician resources, communicating with customers, managing smaller projects, and helping ensure work progresses efficiently. Supervisory Responsibilities None. Duties/Responsibilities Own the end-to-end lifecycle of service work tickets in the field service management system (Fieldpoint). Intake & setup: Receive new job information from the Service Managers and create the corresponding job/project ticket in Fieldpoint promptly and accurately. Documentation: Attach all relevant documentation to the ticket, including quotes, jobsite documents, schematics, access information, correspondence, and start-up reports. Materials & rentals: Add required materials and equipment rentals to the work order. Purchasing: Issue purchase orders needed by the technicians, coordinating with the office as a backup resource when necessary. Travel coordination: Arrange technician travel, keeping travel costs within reasonable budget expectations. Job tracking & close-out: Understand each job well enough to recognize when it is complete, then prepare it for hand-off to the team for invoicing — without needing to involve the Service Managers. Act as the point of contact and communication for Service Engineers, Independent Service Engineers, and outside customers, handling concerns and emergencies as they arise. Make confirmation calls to clients to verify the correct contact person and job site ahead of scheduled work. Coordinate with the contracts and accounting team on contract issues and follow-up, providing status updates to the Service Managers as needed. Relay field updates to customers and customer needs back to the field, keeping both sides aligned throughout the job. Track project scope, timeline, and key milestones from kickoff through completion. Coordinate the people, materials, and documentation needed to keep each project on schedule. Proactively flag risks, delays, or scope changes and communicate them to the appropriate stakeholders. Maintain organized project records so status is clear at any point and hand-off to invoicing is seamless. Partner with the team on day-to-day operational tasks and help keep workflows running smoothly. To ensure continuity and redundancy across the division, the Operations Specialist will be cross trained on the following functions and serve as backup support (with the potential to take ownership over time): invoicing, expenses, work order reports, prevailing wage, appointments, monthly reports.

Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to interact professionally with customers, vendors, and internal teams. Strong analytical, problem-solving, and attention-to-detail skills. Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
