About Essex Parts Services
In a time when corporate loyalty is nearly a thing of the past, the Essex team remains a small, tight-knit unit working towards a unified goal. Many of our staff members have been with us for over a decade, and our company has a familial feel. We are looking for someone who shares our values and wants to find a long-term home in their daily work life. Our business has grown steadily for years and will continue to do so based on a wide range of initiatives we are currently developing. Whomever fills this role will have the opportunity to grow with us, but they will need to wear many hats. With only 25 employees, our culture is not one of hand-holding and micromanagement. To succeed in this role, you will need to think and act independently, and you will need to perpetually produce results. The more versatile, motivated, and capable you are, the more opportunity you will have to achieve your professional goals at Essex.

Essex Parts is the exclusive North American importer and distributor for some of the finest automotive and motorcycle racing brands from around the world including AP Racing, OZ Racing, Ferodo Racing, Spiegler, and others.
