Recruiting Services for HVAC, Plumbing & Building-Supply Teams

Supply Career delivers specialized recruiting for manufacturers, distributors, and home-service providers across the HVAC, plumbing, and building-products ecosystem. Based in Cleveland and working nationwide, we focus on the roles that keep your business moving—technicians, sales, and leadership—through a fast, transparent, and contingent model.

Industry-Focused Recruiting

We recruit inside your world—wholesale distribution, branch operations, field service, install timelines, seasonality, inventory turns, and margin discipline. Our clients include manufacturers and distributors for HVAC, plumbing, and building supplies as well as home-service providers (installers and service contractors). Because we understand the pressures of route density, truck stock, lead times, and warranty service, our conversations with candidates are concrete and credible.

That domain knowledge improves outreach response rates, reduces fall-off during interviews, and helps candidates see the value in your opportunity—whether you’re expanding a territory, opening a new branch, or leveling up a service team.

Function-Focused Sourcing

We prioritize the functions that drive revenue and service outcomes. Our recruiting coverage includes technicians, sales and business development, operations leadership, and product/marketing roles tied to channel growth. Each search is tailored to your priorities—quota ownership, service SLAs, truck-based or branch-based roles, and territory requirements.
