Service Manager - McLeod Auto Sales | Killeen, TX About Us McLeod Auto Sales has been serving Central Texas since 1998. We're an independent used-car dealership that moves fast, operates lean, and takes care of our people. We're not a franchise — and that's exactly the point. We're in growth mode, actively pursuing additional store acquisitions and exploring franchise opportunities, and we need a Service Manager who wants to be part of building something, not just maintaining it. The Role This isn't a clock-in, clock-out position. We're looking for a high-urgency, high-accountability Service Manager who can run a tight operation, lead a team, and own their department like it's their own business. If you've spent your career in a corporate, flat-rate-heavy franchise environment and you're looking for something structured and predictable — this probably isn't your fit. But if you're the kind of person who sees a gap and fills it, who follows through without being asked twice, and who knows how to build trust with customers and technicians alike — keep reading. What You'll Do Oversee all day-to-day service department operations including scheduling, workflow, and quality control Lead, develop, and hold your team accountable to performance standards Build strong relationships with customers and drive repeat business through excellent service experiences Work closely with sales leadership to support reconditioning and lot-ready timelines Identify inefficiencies and implement solutions — you won't need permission to improve things Grow with the company as we expand into new markets and locations What We're Looking For Proven service management experience in automotive (independent dealer experience a plus — but not required if you have the right mindset) A self-starter who thrives in a fast-moving environment without a corporate playbook to lean on Strong people skills — with customers, with technicians, and with leadership High follow-through and a sense of urgency that's built into how you operate, not something you have to think about Someone who can see the big picture and get excited about what this company is building What We Offer Competitive compensation commensurate with experience A seat at the table as we grow — this role has real upward potential The freedom to operate and lead without layers of corporate bureaucracy A leadership team that's invested in doing things the right way If you've been looking for a place where your work actually moves the needle — apply now.
