Job Description
Service Advisor Our service departments are built on trust — and our Service Advisors are the reason customers keep coming back. We're looking for a skilled, customer-focused Service Advisor to be the primary point of contact between our guests and our technicians. You'll manage the full service experience from write-up to delivery — building relationships, setting accurate expectations, and ensuring every repair order is handled with professionalism and care. Strong communication and a commitment to customer satisfaction are the keys to success in this role. Responsibilities Greet customers promptly and professionally; gather vehicle information and accurately document concerns on the repair order. Inspect vehicles, review service history, and recommend additional needed maintenance or repairs. Provide complete, accurate written cost estimates for labor and parts; clearly communicate timelines and obtain customer authorization before any additional work is performed. Monitor repair progress throughout the day and proactively contact customers regarding any changes in status, cost, or completion time. Review completed repair orders to ensure all work is finished and documented; explain completed work and all charges to the customer at delivery. Handle inbound phone inquiries for appointments and work-in-progress updates. Maintain high CSI scores by delivering a consistent, transparent, and friendly service experience. Requirements High school diploma or GED required. Prior automotive service advisor or service department experience strongly preferred. Excellent interpersonal and communication skills — comfortable with customers face-to-face and by phone. Ability to read and interpret repair orders, vehicle history, and manufacturer service recommendations. Organized and able to manage multiple open repair orders in a fast-paced environment. Valid driver's license with an acceptable driving record.
