• Maintain bin organization, warehouse cleanliness, and inventory accuracy throughout the department
• Process parts orders, returns, warranty claims, and core submissions accurately in Reynolds & Reynolds
• Follow up on back-ordered and special-order parts -- communicating proactively with technicians and service advisors on status
• Support additional parts department duties as needed to keep the operation running efficiently

Requirements

• Reynolds & Reynolds experience preferred -- familiarity with parts lookup and order processing in R&R is a significant advantage
• S Subaru or import brand parts experience a plus
• Able to multitask effectively -- managing counter requests, phone inquiries, and warehouse duties simultaneously
