• You come from hospitality, retail, sales, or another guest-facing background and you're ready to run a premium service drive in the East Bay

• Keep the drive organized, and tell guests about wait times and vehicle status before they have to ask
• Keep accurate records in the DMS

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 1+ year of service advisor, hospitality, or guest-facing sales experience preferred -- candidates from retail, hospitality, and other sales backgrounds are encouraged to apply
• Audi, Volkswagen, or luxury brand experience a plus -- paid Audi training provided
• A composed communicator who stays organized when the drive is busy
• Detail-oriented -- accurate estimates and honest timelines are the baseline
• Self-motivated, with a drive to build a book of returning guests
• Comfortable with DMS platforms or quick to learn them
• Valid driver's license with a clean driving record
