What is a Field Service Representative?
A Field Service Representative is a mobile technical support professional responsible for delivering on-site service, maintenance, and repair solutions for a company's products or equipment at customer locations. They serve as the physical embodiment of the company's commitment to customer success, combining technical expertise with strong interpersonal skills to resolve issues directly in the field. Unlike remote support staff, Field Service Representatives travel to client sites, providing hands-on assistance and serving as the primary technical contact for customers operating the organization's equipment.
What does a Field Service Representative do?
Field Service Representatives perform scheduled maintenance and unscheduled repairs on equipment at customer sites, ensuring optimal operation and minimal disruption to client operations. They diagnose mechanical, electrical, and software issues using specialized tools and technical manuals, replacing faulty components and calibrating systems to manufacturer specifications. Additionally, they provide customer training on proper equipment operation, maintain detailed service reports documenting each intervention, and communicate emerging issues to internal engineering teams to drive product improvements. They also manage inventory of replacement parts in their service vehicle and adhere to strict safety protocols while working at diverse customer locations.
