Counter Sales/Parts Associate

Founded in a garage in Schuyler, Nebraska in 1982, QC Supply has grown into a nationwide eCommerce platform and distributor supporting the future of farming. Our Batesburg-Leesville location serves the farm, swine, and poultry industries, but we've never lost our small-town, community-first roots.

About the role

As a Counter Sales / Parts Associate at QC Supply, you will be the backbone of our Batesburg-Leesville branch. You will split your time between ensuring inventory accuracy in the warehouse and delivering outstanding service to customers in our showroom. You will act as the face of QC Supply, engaging with customers in-store and over the phone. You'll troubleshoot their needs, recommend parts, and ensure that from the moment products arrive to the time they leave, everything runs smoothly. If you thrive in a dynamic environment and enjoy seeing processes through from start to finish, this is the perfect role for you!
