The Opportunity
We are seeking a Department Manager to take ownership of our HVAC service department operations. This is a senior leadership role responsible for the performance, efficiency, and customer experience of the service department while serving as a key partner to field leadership and technicians.
This role is ideal for a leader with HVAC field experience or strong service operations knowledge who understands how the service department truly runs. You will oversee customer-facing teams while also working closely with service technicians and supervisors to drive quality, accountability, and profitability.
While this is not a field technician role, HVAC experience is highly valued and will be used to support technician development, resolve complex service issues, and ensure operational decisions align with real-world field conditions.
What You'll Do
- Lead and manage the service department, including customer service representatives, dispatchers, and service writers
- Partner closely with service supervisors and technicians to align service operations, scheduling, and customer expectations
- Use HVAC and service operations knowledge to support troubleshooting, escalations, and technician coaching
- Own service department performance, including efficiency, revenue, callbacks, and customer satisfaction
- Monitor daily, weekly, and monthly service metrics and lead performance discussions
- Improve processes that impact workflow, communication, and customer experience
- Support training, onboarding, and ongoing development for service and dispatch teams
- Maintain strong communication between customers, field teams, and leadership
- Provide after-hours or weekend leadership support for escalated service issues as needed
What You Bring
- Proven leadership experience managing service operations, dispatch, or customer service teams
- HVAC field experience, service management experience, or a strong technical understanding of HVAC operations is required
- Ability to lead and earn credibility with both office staff and field technicians
- Strong business acumen with experience using KPIs to drive performance
- Excellent communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
If you are a service-driven leader who understands both customer experience and the realities of HVAC field operations, this is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a company that truly values its people and promotes ownership at every level.
