Field Service Manager

 

  FIELD SERVICE MANAGER- COASTAL NEW HAVEN COUNTY, CT. This is an opportunity for you to take a small field service group and to build a worldwide organization. This business unit of a privately held manufacturer ranks #2 worldwide in their product line. Due to their success in creating highly customized systems with superior software, sales have doubled in the past two years. They currently have a year backlog in orders. These systems incorporate material handling, conveyors, robotics, PLC controls, and fabricated metal, and the scale is large—the size of a room or even a building. The atmosphere here is typical for a small company with more orders in their history—exciting, very fast paced, chaotic, and freewheeling. Reporting to the V.P & General Manager, the Technical Service Manager will initially supervise eight staff, including Field Service Engineers doing worldwide support, as well as the Help Desk and Call Dispatchers. Some of the duties will include selecting software, scheduling installation and maintenance service, coordinating the Help Desk and establishing service procedures. Travel ranges 20 – 25%. The salary ranges from $85,000 to $100,000, and this position is bonus-eligible. Benefits are competitive and include Cigna POS Basic with employee co-payment of $24.00 per biweekly pay period, dental, vision, life, flexible spending accounts, short and long term disability, EAP, company matched (25% for first three years, 33% afterwards) 401 (k) plan, accrued paid time off, preferred pricing (1% below invoice) on new Chrysler vehicles, free pizza on Fridays, company picnics and dinners, annual bonuses, and more. Their facility will be completely renovated this Spring, so you should have a pristine work environment. Sorry, no relocation expenses on this one. Requires a technical background with exposure to material handling systems and instrumentation, several years experience as a Service Manager in the capital equipment, automation, or material handling industries, and a BS degree or the equivalent.
 

  Sorry, all positions require permanent U.S. residency.
