THE OPPORTUNITY
We're not looking for a service manager who manages a board. We're looking for someone who builds a department. Santiam Heating & Sheet Metal has spent 30 years earning its reputation across Oregon and Washington. We have the customers, the trucks, the technicians, and the relationships. What we're building now is the commercial service engine that turns one-time HVAC installs into long-term relationships where we support the full equipment lifecycle. This role is the foundation of that.
WHAT THIS ROLE IS
Part hunter. Part relationship builder. Part field general. You'll spend time in the field developing new commercial preventative maintenance (PM) agreements. That means walking sites, meeting facility managers and property owners, scoping equipment, and building proposals. You'll also work alongside your technicians: ride alongs, diagnostic support, coaching, and customer service. When you're not doing those things, you're working with ops and leadership on improving the systems around you. Dispatch sits under operations. You're not tied to a board. Your job is to grow the business and develop the people who deliver it. While this role points towards commercial, our technicians flex between residential and commercial settings. You'll manage performance for both business units.
WHAT YOU'LL BUILD
Today we have a commercial PM base generating recurring revenue. We want to grow that base to 300+ agreements by the end of Year 3. This becomes the foundation of a scalable commercial service department. If that sounds like a lot, it is. That's why the comp is structured to reward it.
