Job Summary

We're looking for a hands-on leader to take ownership of a field service operation supporting customers across the Baltimore area. This is not a shop manager role overseeing technicians in a garage. This is for someone who knows how to lead field technicians, manage a mobile workforce, build strong customer relationships, and drive operational performance across a large geographic area. If you've managed field service teams, mobile mechanics, or territory-based technicians, you'll feel right at home here. Apply today!

  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • 401(k) and additional company-sponsored benefits
  • Long-term career growth with a stable, industry-leading organization
  • Opportunity to lead an established service operation with significant autonomy
  • Supportive, team-oriented culture focused on customer service and operational excellence

  • Lead day-to-day operations of a field service department supporting customers across a large territory
  • Recruit, train, coach, and develop a team of field service technicians
  • Manage technician dispatching, scheduling, territory coverage, and utilization
  • Own service department performance including productivity, efficiency, response times, and customer satisfaction
  • Build strong customer relationships and resolve escalated service issues
  • Be present in the field supporting technicians and meeting with customers regularly
  • Partner with parts, operations, and sales teams to improve service delivery and customer uptime
  • Manage departmental budgets, labor performance, and service profitability
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives that increase efficiency and reduce downtime
  • Promote a strong safety culture and ensure OSHA compliance

Service Operations Manager Requirements

  • Experience leading field service technicians, mobile mechanics, or territory-based service teams
  • Background managing a mobile workforce across a large geographic territory
  • Proven ability to balance technician utilization, customer responsiveness, and operational efficiency
  • Strong customer-facing skills with experience handling escalated service situations
  • Experience with dispatching, scheduling, work order management, and service operations
  • Exposure to budgeting, cost control, revenue growth, or service department financial performance
  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to coach, develop, and hold remote employees accountable
  • Comfortable working alongside technical teams and supporting customers in the field
  • Knowledge of OSHA regulations and workplace safety requirements
  • A natural problem solver who takes ownership, drives results, and leads from the front rather than behind a desk
