Position Summary

The Automotive Detailer is a member of the Sales Department and is responsible for preparing dealership vehicles for sale, display, online presentation, and customer delivery.

  • Complete assigned vehicles in a timely manner while maintaining dealership quality standards.
  • Perform other duties as assigned by the General Sales Manager, Used Car Manager, or Sales Manager.

  • Give priority to sold vehicles requiring final preparation.
  • Help ensure newly acquired inventory is prepared for the sales floor as quickly as reasonably possible.
  • Maintain the appearance of vehicles while they remain in inventory.
  • Take ownership of the condition and presentation of vehicles assigned to them.
  • Communicate with management regarding vehicles that are not ready for sale or delivery.
  • Work cooperatively with Sales Consultants and management to meet customer delivery expectations.

Performance Standards

The Detailer will be measured on:

  • No obvious dirt, debris, stains, fingerprints, or missed areas remain after completion.
  • Vehicles are properly inspected before being considered complete.

Productivity

  • Advises management when a vehicle is completed.
  • Communicates any delays or supply/equipment issues that could affect productivity.

Professionalism

  • Maintains a clean and organized work area.
  • Properly cares for dealership vehicles and equipment.
  • Represents the dealership professionally.
  • Demonstrates a positive, team-oriented attitude.

Qualifications

  • Previous automotive detailing experience preferred but not required.
  • Dealership experience is a plus.
  • Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record.
  • Ability to safely operate dealership vehicles.
  • Strong attention to detail.
  • Ability to work independently with limited supervision.
  • Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced environment.
  • Dependable and punctual.
  • Ability to work outdoors in varying weather conditions.
  • Ability to stand, bend, stoop, kneel, and work around vehicles for extended periods.
  • Ability to lift and move detailing equipment and supplies.

  • Health Insurance
  • 401(k) Retirement Plan
  • Employee Discounts on Vehicles, Parts, and Service
  • Six Paid Holidays

Eligibility, waiting periods, contribution levels, and other benefit terms are subject to the dealership's current benefit plan policies.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is a dependable, hardworking individual who takes pride in their work and understands the importance of vehicle presentation.
