Job Description

LOGISTICS COORDINATOR

Anchorage, Alaska  |  On-site  |  $23-$28 per hour, depending on experience

THE POINT OF THIS ROLE  Keep our field teams productive by making sure the materials, tools, equipment, inventory, and vehicles they rely on are organized, maintained, and ready when needed.

About the opportunity

Drain Masters is looking for a highly organized, practical Logistics Coordinator to own the day-to-day systems behind our field operations. This is not simply a warehouse-cleanup position. It is an operational coordination role for someone who notices what is missing, follows problems through to completion, and builds dependable systems instead of relying on memory and last-minute scrambling.

You will support plumbing and sewer field operations by coordinating inventory, purchasing, truck stock, equipment maintenance, fleet readiness, material staging, vendors, and warehouse organization. Your work directly affects whether technicians can begin the day prepared and complete customer work without preventable supply-house trips, equipment failures, or vehicle delays.

What you'll own

• Maintain an organized, clearly labeled, safe, and functional warehouse and shop.
• Manage warehouse and vehicle inventory, including receiving, transfers, cycle counts, discrepancy investigation, replenishment, returns, and warranty items.
• Maintain inventory integrity in Ply and ServiceTitan so physical and system inventory can be trusted.
• Develop and maintain standard PAR levels and truck-stock layouts for different vehicle and work categories.
• Execute routine purchasing through approved vendors within established budgets and authority; track purchase orders, backorders, substitutions, credits, and delivery issues.
• Track company tools and equipment, coordinate preventive maintenance and repairs, and follow open issues until assets return to service.
• Coordinate maintenance, inspections, tires, repairs, documentation, and readiness for company-owned and leased vehicles.
• Review upcoming installations and projects with field leadership and stage required materials and specialty equipment before work begins.
• Maintain asset, repair, maintenance, vendor, and inventory records and report meaningful exceptions and trends.

A normal day may include

• Reviewing immediate and upcoming field resource needs.
• Receiving deliveries, verifying quantities and condition, entering receipts, and putting stock away.
• Replenishing standard inventory and coordinating truck-stock needs and inventory transfers.
• Following up on open orders, critical backorders, repairs, credits, and warranty claims.
• Coordinating urgent vehicle or equipment issues and communicating constraints to affected leaders.
• Preparing materials and equipment for upcoming install, excavation, sewer rehabilitation, coating, or lining work.
• Restoring the warehouse, shop, and staging areas to ready condition before the next workday.

What success looks like

• Technicians start the day with properly stocked and equipped vehicles.
• Standard materials are available when needed, and emergency supply runs decline.
• Inventory records are accurate enough to support real purchasing and replenishment decisions.
• Equipment location, condition, maintenance status, and repair status are known.
• Vehicles receive preventive maintenance before problems disrupt operations.
• Upcoming jobs are staged early enough to identify and solve shortages.
• Purchasing is proactive, routine issues are handled without constant management intervention, and field downtime caused by logistics trends toward zero.

What we're looking for

• Strong organization and follow-through; you close loops rather than merely passing information along.
• Comfort working with inventory systems, spreadsheets, purchasing records, and detailed operational data.
• Ability to learn and use Ply, ServiceTitan, and related systems accurately.
• Practical problem-solving skills and the judgment to distinguish a routine decision from an issue that needs escalation.
• Clear communication with technicians, field leaders, office staff, vendors, repair facilities, and management.
• Ability to prioritize competing needs in an active service-business environment.
• Attention to cost, quantity, condition, location, deadlines, and documentation.
• Willingness to work hands-on in warehouse, shop, vehicle, and equipment areas—not solely from a desk.
• Experience in inventory, warehouse operations, purchasing, fleet coordination, equipment management, field service, construction, plumbing, or a related environment is helpful.

Authority and working relationships

The Logistics Coordinator reports to the Operations Manager and is expected to independently handle routine replenishment, approved-vendor orders, maintenance coordination, and normal logistics decisions within established procedures and spending authority. Field managers remain responsible for technicians and technical job decisions; Dispatch remains responsible for deployment. Logistics owns the physical-resource readiness that allows those teams to perform successfully.

Submit your resume and a brief explanation of the inventory, purchasing, fleet, equipment, warehouse, or field-service coordination experience that best prepares you for this role. We are especially interested in examples of systems you improved, recurring problems you solved, or operational delays you helped prevent.
