Seasoned Pros Join NE The right People in the right Place at the right Time. Following the credo of Northeastern Supply's CEO, Steve Cook, that to succeed in business and allow NE to "…work harder, doing whatever it takes to be your preferred supplier," NE fulfills its mission by continuing to add the best people in the positions they fit best in order to serve its customers. To continue to add talent, experience and customer-focused staff to the NE team, three new management pros have joined the NE family, and we invite you to come in, or contact them to say hello or to ask for their help. The three areas of specialty for the new staffers are ecommerce/customer service/business planning; HVAC American Standard and Mitsubishi Brand & Product Management; and supply chain and NE inventory. Let's meet NE's three new family members: The right People in the right Place at the right Time. BRIAN PARKER DIRECTOR OF E-COMMERCE While directing NE's overall supply chain operations, including the purchasing and inventory of materials, selection of vendors, and distribution of goods, John will also evaluate past performance data to forecast needs and provide inventory control.

He also served over 10 years as a US Navy Supply Corps Officer and holds both a B.A. in Business Administration from Stockton University and an M.B.A. from Florida Institute of Technology. John stated, "I am truly excited to join NE and to help bring our supply chain team to the next level. My goal is to ensure that we always have the right product, at the right place, at the right time, at the right price — all the time."

Chat offered, "The decision to join the team at Northeastern was an easy one. We have some of the best talent in the business and a long standard of going above and beyond to support our customers.
