About Us
JNG Electric Inc. is a growing, family-owned electrical contractor serving Durham Region and the Greater Toronto Area. Our team completes residential, commercial, industrial, and service work, and we've built our reputation by providing reliable, high-quality service to our clients.
As our company has grown, we've reached the point where stronger systems, organization, and coordination are essential to continue growing successfully.
We're looking for someone who enjoys creating order, improving processes, and taking ownership of how an office operates. This isn't a position where you'll simply follow an existing system, we're looking for someone who wants to help build better ones.
If organizing people, schedules, and processes is something that genuinely motivates you, we'd love to meet you.
About the Role
This position is the operational backbone of our office.
You'll become the first point of contact for our customers while coordinating our service department and helping ensure our technicians are where they need to be, when they need to be there.
You'll work directly with the owners to keep operations organized, improve efficiency, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
This is a role with genuine autonomy. We want someone who enjoys identifying better ways of doing things and has the confidence to implement them.
What You'll Be Responsible ForService Scheduling & Dispatch
This is the most important part of the role.
You'll own our daily scheduling and dispatch process, ensuring the right technicians are assigned to the right jobs while balancing customer priorities, technician availability, travel time, and overall efficiency. We currently use Connecteam for scheduling.
Customer Service
You'll be the first friendly voice our customers hear. Responsibilities include:
- Answering incoming calls
- Booking service appointments
- Updating customers on technician arrival times
- Following up with customers when required
- Escalating technical questions to the owners when necessary
Lead Management
You'll ensure every opportunity is captured and followed up on. This includes:
- Managing incoming service requests
- Organizing leads from platforms such as Jiffy, home stars, etc.
- Tracking follow-ups
- Ensuring no customer inquiry gets overlooked
Office Organization
You'll help keep our office running smoothly by:
- Tracking outstanding tasks
- Managing follow-ups
- Keeping schedules organized
- Assisting the owners with day-to-day administrative coordination
- Identifying opportunities to improve office systems and workflows
As You Grow Into the Role
We'll gradually introduce additional responsibilities, including:
- Service invoicing
- Accounts receivable
- Collections follow-up
- Payment entry
- Job file management
Longer term, there may also be opportunities to assist with:
- Payroll
- Employee onboarding
- HR administration
- Office management
Bonus Skills (Not Required)
While these aren't requirements, we'd love to hear from candidates who have experience with:
- Electrical dispatch experience, or previous experience working with an electrical contractor — a real asset in this role
- Connecteam or similar scheduling software
- Dispatching service technicians
- Bookkeeping or accounts receivable
- Social media or marketing

- Invoices are sent promptly
- Follow-ups don't get forgotten
- Owners spend less time chasing paperwork and more time running the business
- Office systems become increasingly organized and efficient
Who We're Looking For
Above all else, we're looking for someone who is exceptionally organized. The right candidate naturally creates structure where others see chaos.
You'll likely be someone who:
- Loves organizing and improving systems
- Notices problems before others do
- Takes initiative without needing constant direction
- Communicates professionally and confidently
- Enjoys helping customers
- Is dependable and trustworthy
- Pays close attention to detail
- Learns new software quickly
- Is comfortable adapting in a fast-moving environment
Previous office management experience is certainly valuable, but we're just as interested in someone with the right attitude, organization skills, and willingness to learn.
Compensation & Growth
This position pays between $24 and $30 per hour, depending on experience, qualifications, and demonstrated ability.
You'll be compensated for the full role from your first day. We'll simply phase in responsibilities over your first few months so you have time to learn our business properly.
