Proven experience in sales, operations, purchasing, or inventory management within the HVAC wholesale distribution setting is essential. Strong interpersonal skills, a customer-centric approach, and the ability to mentor and lead a diverse workforce are crucial for success in this role. In addition to operational oversight, the Sales Center Manager will coordinate training programs and company events to foster team development and cohesive workplace culture.
Candidates should possess excellent communication and analytical abilities, be proactive in seeking process and service improvements, and demonstrate a commitment to continuous learning and leadership development. The physical demands of this role include handling equipment weighing up to 50 pounds, operating warehouse machinery such as forklifts and pallet jacks, and performing tasks requiring various physical positions.
