Primary Purpose:
As a Finish Account Coordinator, you will play a key role in the success of our residential door, millwork, and hardware business by supporting the Finish Sales Specialist. From takeoff and product selection through delivery and invoicing, you'll ensure seamless order execution and excellent customer service while collaborating with multiple teams across the company.

Key Responsibilities:

• Account Coordination: Manage the entire order process for interior and exterior doors, millwork, and finish hardware, supporting the sales team with takeoffs, door and hardware schedules, quotes, change orders, and job tracking to ensure timely and accurate delivery.
• Order Accuracy: Verify critical build details before release to the shop: door size and thickness, handing and swing, jamb width, bore and backset, casing and base profiles, species and finish, and hardware function, finish, and keying.
• Team Collaboration: Work closely with estimating, purchasing, the door shop/pre-hang team, dispatch, and field/install crews to facilitate smooth handoffs and ensure successful job completion.
• Customer Support: Serve as a direct point of contact for builders, contractors, and homeowners. Ensure customer needs are met promptly and professionally.
• Scheduling & Handoffs: Coordinate build and delivery timelines with the shop, scheduling desk, and delivery team so material lands on site at the right stage of the job.
• Attention to Detail: Maintain up-to-date records in the ERP and project tracking systems, ensuring job details, quantities, statuses, and delivery dates are accurately tracked.
• Product & Selections: Help customers without a designer or millwork consultant clarify door styles, moulding profiles, and hardware selections, and complete all associated paperwork and confirmations.
• Problem Solving: Proactively identify and resolve special-order lead time issues, backorders, field measurement discrepancies, and shortages before they impact the job.
• Service & Warranty: Track punch list items, damage claims, and warranty requests through to resolution.
• Team Interaction: Maintain a professional and friendly approach in all interactions with customers, subcontractors, and colleagues.
• Time Management: Balance multiple jobs efficiently, prioritize responsibilities, and complete tasks with minimal supervision.
