Company Culture

"What I’ve loved most about working for North Coast for the past eight years is the abundance of opportunities available. I started at North Coast in our Sales Trainee program and worked as an Inside Salesperson, Service Center Manager, and Outside Salesperson in Rockwell and non-Rockwell territories. Working in these different roles has given me unique training chances, a well-rounded view of our operations, and exposure to our different customer types, all of which have helped me succeed in my current Outside Sales role."

Company Culture
"I enjoy working for North Coast because there is such a vast amount of knowledge that comes from working in every position. There's so much to learn, and it feels very rewarding when I'm able to use knowledge and experiences from previous positions and apply those to new roles. I started as a temp in 2019 and was hired on full time early 2020. I then ran the receiving side of our Seattle Warehouse for a year and had since then moved into Counter Sales in our Tacoma branch. Each step of the way, my leaders within the company, have done nothing but uplift and guide me to where I am today. I am thankful for that."

Company Culture
"I have been “the Voice of North Coast,” aka Receptionist in Seattle since 2001. Over the years, I have grown from my original role and enjoy a wide range of responsibilities. Each day is different and exciting! What I like most about working at North Coast is the people. They keep me engaged every day and encourage me to go the extra mile to ensure they are all taken care of. As I come up on my 20th anniversary at North Coast, I am thankful for the opportunity to grow with a great company and embark on the next chapter in Auburn with a new role and responsibilities."

Company Culture

“I began working with North Coast as a Project Manager a little over a year ago. Beginning a new career during the pandemic was challenging; however, the people at NC made it a smooth transition and welcomed me with open arms. I am enjoying the opportunity to learn and grow within the electrical distribution world and am excited to see what the future has in store!”

Company Culture

"Working for North Coast has presented me with the opportunity to understand the importance of our business in the region and how our role as a company is to help provide material from our residential customers to our commercial side. The experience that I’ve learned from this has always been positive and resourceful every step of the way to understanding the functions of items and finding alternative solutions for customers to get their job done. I started for North Coast back in May of 2018 in our Seattle branch Receiving UPS/Freight and have transitioned to Inside Sales in Bellingham. Working for North Coast has shown me that anybody who wants to grow in the company is given the opportunity to do so, doesn’t matter if you started in the warehouse or if you have no experience in the industry. The bright side of not knowing the industry is that there’s always a team that will help you along the way to improve yourself and become more resourceful to the company and your customer base as well."

Sincerely, 
Cory McCulloch
