Parts Expertise. Problem Solving. Team Impact.
Some people see parts.
Others enjoy figuring things out.
They like solving problems, learning new things, staying organized, and helping a team succeed. They take pride in finding solutions and keeping things moving.
If that sounds like you, keep reading.
Foothills Group is looking for a Heavy Duty Parts Technician to join our growing team in Calgary.
This isn't a role where you simply answer phones and process orders. You'll play a critical role in supporting technicians, service advisors, and customers by ensuring the right parts are available when they're needed. As an authorized XCMG Equipment dealer, you'll also support our equipment division while helping both internal and external customers find the parts and solutions they need.
Every repair depends on the right parts. Every successful job starts with someone who knows how to find solutions.
Whether you're an experienced Parts Technician or someone with strong mechanical aptitude, a desire to learn, and the ability to pick things up quickly, we want to hear from you.
If you take pride in being organized, resourceful, and dependable, you'll fit in well here.
Who We Are
Foothills Group is one of Western Canada's fastest-growing repair companies with locations in Calgary, Lethbridge, and mine support operations in Sparwood, BC.
In addition to our repair operations, we are an authorized XCMG Equipment dealer, supporting customers with equipment sales, parts, and service solutions throughout the region.
We've built our reputation by doing things the right way, standing behind our work, and investing heavily in our people.
We believe great companies are built by great people. That's why we focus on developing our team, creating opportunities for growth, and building a workplace people are proud to be part of.

- Our Customers Love to Come Back
- We Do It Right the First Time

What You'll Be Doing
As a Heavy Duty Parts Technician, you'll be responsible for:
- Sourcing and ordering parts for heavy equipment, commercial trucks, trailers and fleet vehicles
- Working closely with technicians, service advisors, and customers to identify parts requirements, source solutions, and provide accurate quotes
- Supporting parts sales growth by building strong customer relationships and identifying opportunities to provide solutions

- Enjoys solving problems and finding solutions
- Works well under pressure and can manage changing priorities
- Has a strong desire to learn and improve
- Holds a valid driver’s license
- Takes pride in helping the entire operation succeed
Experience in parts is valuable, but it is not required.
What matters most is your attitude, work ethic, willingness to learn, and ability to pick things up quickly.
If you're looking for an opportunity to build valuable skills and grow within a company that invests in its people, this could be the role for you.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Previous experience in parts, inventory, warehousing, customer service, or a related field
- Heavy-duty, automotive, agricultural, or equipment industry experience
- Interest in how equipment, systems and components work together
- Experience with inventory management systems
- Parts Technician Ticket or actively pursuing the designation
- Forklift certification considered an asset
We can teach the technical side.
What we can't teach is work ethic, accountability, and a genuine desire to learn.

This Role Isn't for Everyone
The pace is fast.
Technicians are waiting on parts.
Customers are looking for answers.
Priorities change throughout the day.
Everyone relies on you to stay organized, communicate clearly, and find solutions when challenges arise.
If you're looking for a position where every day looks the same, this isn't the right fit.
