Description

JOB SUMMARY

The Rental Coordinator is responsible for providing responsive, accurate, and customer-focused rental support while coordinating the availability, reservation, contract administration, checkout, return, invoicing, movement, condition documentation, and status of Milford rental equipment and related assets.

This position serves as a primary rental contact for customers and works closely with Rental, Sales, Operations, Warehouse, Technical Services, Logistics, and other Milford departments to ensure customer needs are addressed, equipment is accurately documented and available, rental transactions are processed correctly, and equipment movement, repairs, returns, and follow-up are coordinated efficiently.

The Rental Coordinator maintains accurate rental contracts, reservations, equipment-status records, service tickets, transfer records, supporting documentation, and system transactions. The position is expected to develop sufficient working knowledge of Milford rental equipment and fusion processes to answer routine customer questions, identify when technical assistance is required, and ensure questions outside the employee's demonstrated knowledge are referred to an appropriately qualified Milford resource.

Success in this position requires strong customer service, organization, attention to detail, asset accountability, communication, teamwork, safe work practices, reliable follow-through, and flexibility to support extended-hours and on-call customer needs.

12. Ensure required customer acknowledgments, signatures, checkout documents, return documents, and other supporting records are completed and retained as required.

15. Process pricing, credits, contract exceptions, damage-related charges, cleaning charges, fuel charges, and similar matters only within established procedures and delegated authority; obtain management guidance when required.

18. Document observed damage or missing items but do not independently determine customer financial responsibility unless authorized under company procedures.

19. Do not release equipment known or reasonably suspected to be unsafe, damaged, incomplete, overdue for required inspection or service, or otherwise not ready for rental. Immediately route the equipment for appropriate evaluation and notify the appropriate Milford resource.

21. Ensure returned equipment is properly identified and routed for inspection, cleaning, maintenance, repair, quarantine, transfer, or return-to-available status as appropriate.

22. Promptly report suspected theft, loss, unauthorized use, missing equipment or components, unexplained equipment location, significant damage, customer-reported safety incidents, or unusual rental activity to management.

34. Recognize the limits of personal technical knowledge and training. When uncertain about equipment suitability, application, setup, operation, compatibility, repair, fusion procedure, or another technical matter, seek assistance from an appropriately qualified Milford resource rather than provide unverified information.
