WHAT TO EXPECT AS A SERVICE MANAGER
You start your day as a Service Manager by aligning schedules and priorities, then you're off-coaching a tech through MeasureQuick diagnostics, riding along to reinforce clean paperwork and clear customer communication, and fielding calls to troubleshoot issues remotely. When an escalated job appears, you step in, interpret readings, make the repair-or-replacement call, and ensure payment is handled per procedure. You present a concise training topic at an in-house meeting, collaborate with installers on a tricky retrofit, review callbacks with management to prevent repeats, and keep the team ready for industry changes like refrigerant updates. Throughout the day, you maintain communication with the office for dispatching, keep vehicles and tools inspection-ready, uphold safety and code compliance, support recruiting with trade schools, and champion a culture that blends craftsmanship with outstanding service.
