Logistics SpecialistKeep the Shop Ready. Keep the Field Moving.

Full-Time | On-Site | Overtime EligibleCompensation: $25/hour

The Opportunity

If you are the kind of person who sees a disorganized shop, an overdue vehicle repair, a missing material request, or an employee without the equipment they need—and immediately wants to fix it—this may be your role.

Mr. Electric of Clark County is looking for a hands-on Logistics Specialist to help keep our field operation organized, equipped, and ready to serve customers.

Your job is to make sure our Service Professionals and Installers have the materials, vehicles, tools, equipment, technology, and support they need—when they need it.

This isn't a desk-only Logistics role. You'll work in the shop, coordinate with vendors, manage materials and fleet needs, solve problems, support the field, and help build better systems as you go.

For the right person, this is an opportunity to step into meaningful responsibility, become a key part of the operation, and grow as the company continues to grow.

The goal is simple: keep the field ready to serve customers.

What You'll OwnMaterials & Purchasing

You'll manage material requests from start to finish—sourcing materials, coordinating orders and pickups, working with suppliers, communicating delays, and making sure requests don't disappear into a black hole.

You'll help ensure the field gets the right materials at the right time while using company purchasing resources responsibly.

Shop, Inventory, Van Stock & Company Assets

You'll help make sure the shop is organized, stocked, safe, and ready to support the field every day.

If something belongs to the company and supports the field, Logistics helps make sure it's where it belongs and ready to use.

Fleet & Vehicle Readiness

You'll help keep our vehicles on the road by coordinating preventative maintenance, repairs, tires, inspections, vendors, GPS and security equipment, vehicle records, and replacement-vehicle needs when necessary.

You'll proactively identify vehicle needs and help get problems addressed before they become bigger disruptions.

A major part of the job is reducing preventable vehicle downtime.

New-Hire Field Readiness

When a new Service Professional or Installer joins the team, you'll make sure they're ready to go.

That can include:

Welcome kitUniformsiPad and field technologyTools and safety equipmentKeys and company assetsVehicle assignmentStandard van stock and organization

The expectation is simple: when a new team member enters the field, Logistics has done its part to make them ready.

iPad & Field Technology Support

You'll be the first stop for basic iPad and field-technology issues.

You'll help troubleshoot common device, login, application, connectivity, and settings problems, coordinate replacement equipment when needed, and escalate more advanced issues to the appropriate support resource.

You don't need to be an IT expert. You do need to be comfortable with technology, willing to troubleshoot, and committed to helping get people back to work.
