Automotive Service Advisor / Service Writer – High-Energy Closer for an Established Automotive Repair Shop

High-Volume Automotive Service Advisor

Location: DeSoto, TX

Schedule: Five-day workweek with two consecutive days off; shop is open seven days a week

Compensation: Competitive base + aggressive bonus structure | $75,000–$130,000 total compensation potential

AutoShop Recruiting has partnered with an established independent automotive shop to locate a high-performing hungry, proven Service Advisor for an incredibly busy, high-volume service center in Desoto, Texas, who thrives in a fast-paced independent repair shop environment. This shop generates more than $500,000 in monthly sales, so we need a producer who can manage heavy car count, build accurate estimates, source parts, close large repair orders, and maintain customer trust.

This is not an entry-level position or a traditional dealership lane role.

What You’ll Do

• Complete our advisor-led Rack Attack inspection process
• Identify and prioritize safety, maintenance, and repair needs
• Source aftermarket, OEM, dealer, and specialty parts
• Verify pricing, availability, labor requirements, and warranty coverage
• Build accurate, profitable estimates
• Present complete repair recommendations and ask for the sale
• Manage customer communication from vehicle drop-off through delivery
• Coordinate workflow with technicians, vendors, and management
• Process parts, labor, aftermarket, and extended-warranty claims
• Follow up on declined services and unresolved recommendations
• Manage multiple repair orders in a high-volume environment

What You Must Bring

• Three or more years of successful automotive service-advisor experience
• Proven results in a high-volume independent repair shop, or tire and service center
• Strong automotive technical and repair-estimating knowledge
• Hands-on parts sourcing and warranty-processing experience
• Strong closing, objection-handling, organization, and follow-up skills
• Ability to work a five-day schedule with rotating weekend availability required
• Valid driver’s license and insurable driving record

Dealership experience alone is not enough unless you have personally sourced parts, built estimates, administered warranties, and owned the complete repair order.

Benefits

• $75,000–$130,000 earning potential
• Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance
• Paid time off
• Established customer base and consistent repair opportunities
• Structured operating processes
• Family-owned DeSoto shop serving the community since 1979

If you're a proven advisor who needs to earn six figures, and you're ready to show your measurable results, including monthly sales, average repair order, closing percentage, or car count - then APPLY NOW!

How to Apply

If you’re a high-octane Service Advisor who loves the action, thrives under pressure, and knows how to close with confidence, we want to talk.
