Walser Automotive Group Facilities Technician
Job Description
For more than 70 years, Walser Automotive Group has put people first: our customers, our employees, and our communities. As a familyowned, family-run company, we've grown to 29 dealerships representing 26 brands across Minnesota, Kansas, and Illinois. We lead with innovation, technology, and a promise to deliver an exceptional experience every time.
And your work here matters:
a portion of every vehicle sold and serviced supports the Walser Foundation, investing in schools, nonprofits, and workforce programs in our communities. At Walser, success starts with people. Join us to build a career where you can grow, belong, and make a real impact.
ABOUT THE
ROLEThis is a hands-on, fast-paced role, and no two days look alike. You'll support six locations across the metro, and it's common to work out of several buildings in a single day — a leaking faucet and a run of burnt-out ballasts in the morning, a scissor lift and a carpentry repair in the afternoon. If you like variety, working with your hands, and owning problems end to end, you'll do well here. This role is more physically demanding than most positions in our organization. Please review the Physical Demands section before applying.
