Follow up with technicians and managers to keep repairs moving.
Ensure customers receive accurate updates and realistic completion times.
Track advisor performance, sales, gross profit, CSI, and other key metrics.
Review inspections and repair recommendations for missed opportunities.
Promote available payment options when appropriate.
Maintain accountability for appointments, workflow, callbacks, and customer communication.
Help create a consistent process from customer arrival through vehicle pickup.
Build a culture focused on hospitality, teamwork, urgency, and results.

Automotive service advisor or service management experience.
Strong sales, leadership, and customer service skills.
Proven ability to sell maintenance and repair recommendations.
Ability to coach advisors and hold the team accountable.
