What are the responsibilities and job description for the Shop Tech to Service Advisor — Career-Track Growth Role LOCATION: Olympia, WA | EMPLOYMENT TYPE: F position at MIDAS?
Skills can be learned. We're hiring for what can't be taught — a good person who genuinely wants to help, stays coachable, and gets better every day. If you served in the military, we especially want to hear from you. That discipline, attention to detail, and professionalism doesn't go unnoticed here.
We're not looking for just a lube tech. We're not looking for an experienced service writer. We're looking for someone who can eventually become both — starting on the shop floor and growing into the front counter.
Midas Olympia is a locally owned shop building a stronger team and a better customer experience. This role is built for someone who is great with people, has a strong work ethic, and wants a real career in automotive service.
YOU'LL START WITH:
- Oil changes, tire rotations, and basic maintenance
- Vehicle inspections and documentation
- Supporting digital vehicle inspections and shop workflow
YOU'LL GROW INTO:
- Front counter and service advisor duties
- Customer communication, estimates, and repair order management
- A full Service Advisor role as you develop skills and trust

- Strong people skills — you can talk to customers, build trust, guide decisions
- Some sales or customer service background
- Mechanical interest or basic automotive knowledge
- Dependable, coachable, and ready to grow
- Military veterans are strongly encouraged to apply
Automotive experience is helpful. The right attitude and work ethic matter more.
