We provide group purchasing and management services for copiers and printers for large enterprises. Our client base is primarily K-12 schools, but we also work with Municipalities, Private Schools and some commercial entities. In the past 5 years, SPC has grown around 45%, so we have an immediate need to expand our operations department to assist in managing the growing cooperative.
The ideal candidate will be detail-oriented and technically skilled. Most skills can be trained; however, we are looking for someone with a background in computer networking and customer service. We are looking for someone who is hands-on, customer-focused, and thrives on solving problems efficiently.
Key Responsibilities:
- Provide clear, professional communication with clients and internal teams.
- Work closely with customers and SPC’s vendors and Billing teams to coordinate equipment installations and upgrades.
- Provide remote and on-site support for network-connected copiers, printers, and Multi-Function Printers (MFPs).
- Assist in inventory management, order processing, and maintaining internal operations systems.
- Troubleshoot connectivity and software-related issues, escalating to vendors if needed.
- Maintain accurate records of service calls, network settings, and customer configurations.
- Stay up to date on firmware updates, software tools, and industry trends.
Qualifications:

- Strong understanding of TCP/IP, Windows networking, and general troubleshooting.
- Familiarity with configuring scan-to-email, SMB scanning, and print driver installations.
- Comfortable working independently and managing multiple priorities.
- Excellent communication and customer service skills.
- Bonus: Experience with copier management tools (e.g., FM Audit, ECI DCA) or CRM systems.
Work Environment & Expectations:
- This is a hybrid role. Most of our work is done from our home offices; however occasional travel to Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont is required. Expenses are covered for meals and travel per the IRS mileage reimbursement.
- Occasional lifting of equipment (up to 50 lbs) may be needed.
- Professional work attire is required that is appropriate to the work being performed. During the survey process, more formal attire is required than during a delivery and installation process.
Salary and Benefits:
- Estimated starting salary is $52,000-$59,000 depending on experience
- Phone stipend
- Remote office expense
- Health, Dental and Vision Insurance
- 10 Days starting vacation
