Join Our Service Team

We are looking for an experienced, motivated, and customer-focused Automotive Service Advisor to join our growing service department.

The Service Advisor is one of the most important positions in the dealership.

• Review vehicle history and manufacturer-recommended maintenance.

• Prepare accurate repair orders and ensure all customer concerns are properly documented.

• Communicate with technicians regarding diagnosis, repairs, and additional recommendations.

• Present recommended maintenance and repair work to customers in a clear and professional manner.

• Provide accurate estimates and obtain customer authorization before work is performed.

• Maintain consistent communication with customers regarding repair status, pricing, delays, and completion times.

• Follow up on declined services and future maintenance opportunities.

• Review completed repair orders for accuracy before customer delivery.

• Explain repairs, maintenance performed, warranties, and future service recommendations at vehicle delivery.

• Maintain strong customer satisfaction and manufacturer CSI/KPI performance.

• Assist with appointment retention, customer follow-up, and service department growth.

• Work closely with technicians, dispatch, parts, BDC, warranty administrators, and service management.

• Maintain accurate customer contact information, including phone numbers and email addresses.

• Follow dealership processes regarding inspections, documentation, repair-order closure, and customer communication.

• Handle customer concerns professionally and involve management when necessary.

The Person We're Looking For

We're not simply looking for someone who can write repair orders.

We're looking for someone who can own the service experience.

You should be comfortable greeting a customer, identifying their needs, reviewing inspection results, confidently presenting recommendations, communicating throughout the repair process, and making sure the customer leaves knowing exactly what was completed and what their vehicle may need next.

If you are a driven automotive professional who understands that great customer service and strong sales performance can—and should—exist together, we want to hear from you.
