Our ownership and leadership team are committed to investing in the right person, the right processes, and the right culture to elevate our fixed operations to the next level.

Position Summary

This is a key leadership role with direct responsibility for managing daily operations in both the Service and Parts departments.

  • Lead and manage all aspects of the Service and Parts departments

  • Actively engage in daily service operations and workflow management

  • Drive department profitability through strategic planning and operational execution

  • Monitor and analyze KPIs including ELR, hours per RO, CSI, technician productivity, and parts gross

  • Identify and implement process improvements to improve efficiency and customer experience

  • Recruit, train, and coach service advisors, technicians, and parts personnel

  • Develop and execute fixed operations strategy and performance goals

  • Ensure adherence to manufacturer standards, warranty procedures, and safety regulations

  • Foster a high-performing, team-oriented environment focused on accountability and customer satisfaction

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of dealership service or fixed operations leadership experience

  • Proven track record of improving performance and profitability

  • Hands-on leadership style with strong operational focus

  • Experience building processes and improving team accountability

  • Familiarity with Tekion or modern DMS platforms (Tekion experience preferred)

  • Strong communication and leadership skills

  • ASE or OEM certifications a plus

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary with performance-based bonuses

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance

  • 401(k) with company match

  • Paid time off and holidays

  • Supportive ownership and leadership team

  • Opportunity to build and shape the fixed operations department

  • Relocation opportunity to beautiful coastal Maine with excellent quality of life

Why This Role Is Different

This is not a maintenance role — it’s a build-and-grow opportunity .

We’re looking for a leader who enjoys improving processes, developing teams, and unlocking the full potential of a service and parts operation. If you’re motivated by making measurable improvements and building something strong, this is an outstanding opportunity.
