About The Role:
JK Tools is a fast-growing, founder-led industrial supply company and the force behind trusted brands like Empire Abrasives. We serve tradespeople, manufacturers, and small businesses across the country with reliable abrasives, tools, and industrial essentials, delivered fast, supported well, and always built for the job.
We’re expanding fast and building with purpose.
Our Vision:
In the next 10 years, JK Tools will have America’s largest catalog of industrial supply brands for small businesses.
