Service Advisor

Our Mindset Here's to those who think differently. The ones who think that a car dealership's first priority should be the guest. Such a candid idea could only come from Ourisman. Because we're forward thinking, just like the communities we serve. Individuals who won't be constrained by how things "have always been done", but instead strive to do things "how they could be done" and "how they should be done." It is a philosophy we have infused into every fabric of our dealerships, from the bottom up, in every department, and in every Ourisman team member. Changing the way we all think about car buying is just the beginning. The Opportunity As a Service Advisor, you'll connect guests with our service team so vehicle maintenance and repairs are explained clearly, approved confidently, and completed accurately. You'll greet customers, listen to concerns, and translate needs into clear repair orders for technicians. You'll recommend appropriate services, provide written estimates, and secure authorization before work begins. Throughout the visit, you'll give timely updates, adjust expectations when timelines change, and document interactions, labor, and parts. You'll also help grow the business by promoting dealership services and products that improve ownership experience. Required skills/experience: - Prior Service Advisor (or similar automotive) experience preferred - Strong communication, organization, and customer-first mindset - Comfort with automotive service software and Microsoft Office - Working knowledge of basic vehicle systems and repair processes If you're ready to help guests feel informed and taken care of, apply today. A Typical Shift You start by checking the day's appointments, then welcome guests as they arrive and set expectations for the visit. Between conversations, you move from the drive to your workstation to review notes, line up approvals, and keep details organized. As the shop progresses, you touch base with technicians, relay updates in plain language, and adjust promised times when needed. You'll balance quick questions, phone calls, and follow-ups, making sure each guest knows what's happening next. By day's end, you close out paperwork, confirm completed work, and tee up tomorrow's schedule so the next morning runs smoothly.
