As I continued to grow within the company, I had the opportunity to take on an outside sales position. It was a very easy process because of what I learned. I had a base of customers I could call on and a whole bunch of experience that enabled me.

Nate Sales Representative

I appreciate the confidence my customers put in me. It is about renting them the right thing at the right time. That's how you build a relationship and trust. You help them in a situation and save them money...that's how you establish a customer for life.

Juan Sales Representative

What I really love about my job is talking to different types of people and trying to build relationships, not just for the short term, but for the long term. It's a challenge to get new business, but that's what makes it fun also. I enjoy that aspect of the job.

I believe I was one of the first women to work for H&E in a Service Manager position. I had to earn it and get hands-on. I've also found if you listen, you learn, and this is what I had to do to understand what our techs go through day in and day out.

Corporate

“Created with Sketch.“

One great thing about working at H&E is that we are a team. We care about each other. You are a person, not a number. Here, people truly care. I've got a part in this company, and that is how I treat it ... like my company.

Customer Service isn't just about delivery. It's also about before and after: calling the customer beforehand to make sure you are delivering exactly what they need; calling the customer after to make sure everything is right.

Parts

When I went through cancer and the flood, they were so with me. The minute I could get into my house, they got there and helped me. That's a major benefit when you have your company backing you up on any disaster. H&E has always been there.
