Industrial parts distributor with 3.5M SKUs and omnichannel fulfillment
RS Americas operates a large-scale industrial parts distribution network serving designers, builders, and maintainers across equipment and manufacturing operations. The company's hiring is heavily sales-driven (17 of 28 open roles), paired with active uptake projects in order-flow improvement and consultative safety work—indicating a shift toward higher-margin, solutions-based selling rather than transactional parts movement. Pain-point tracking shows friction in share-of-wallet capture and compliance governance, suggesting the sales acceleration is being channeled into account expansion and risk mitigation.

Current operational focus areas include safety-program scaling for strategic accounts, order-flow streamlining, and uptake of new e-commerce and integration features.
Core systems include SAP (ERP), Shopify and Adobe Commerce (e-commerce), AWS (cloud infrastructure), Power BI (analytics), and HubSpot (CRM). Office productivity and collaboration tools include Microsoft 365, Teams, and SharePoint.
