Description:

This is a temp/hire for a successful company in the Appleton/Little Chute area.  (They may consider a direct hire for the right candidate who has industry experience.) This candidate will be responsible for supporting the sales department, material management, vendor relations, and other duties as well.   60 percent of this position is sales support - creating bid response quotations, budgetary estimates and recommended specifications. This position assists two field sales representatives and a few house accounts to obtain vendor partner pricing for chassis, body, equipment (aerial, crane, winch, compressor, etc.) and accessories as specified to build a quotation. This person handles walk-in and call-in sales inquiries. The other 40 percent happens after the sale. This person will issue purchase orders for the major components (chassis, body and equipment) because he/she is the contact person with these vendors.
