Overview

About Model 1 Commercial Vehicles: Since we got our start in 1980, Model 1 Commercial Vehicles has grown to become the nation’s largest dealership, representing more than 20 top manufacturers across the U.S. And we did it all by listening to and investing in customers like you. Customers who want more than a dealer. Customers who want a partner in creative solutions to the challenges you face today, and visionary thinking for what’s next. It’s the strength of our relationships – both with customers and manufacturers – that allows us to keep a finger on the pulse of what our customers need and what’s possible to not just source but create together. Whether it’s custom-built vehicles or alternative fuel and electric vehicle (EV) options, customers have a partner from challenge all the way through solution and beyond.

Our Core Values: At Model 1, we are committed to living our core values:

  • Solving Problems: Trust what you know. Work together to find solutions. See every angle and figure it out.
  • Setting the Tone: Establish the mood that puts others at ease. Be the person that you’d want to interact with – approachable and transparent.
  • Drive Forward: Keep your eyes up to see what’s ahead. Imagine better methods. Seize opportunities. Move the business and the market, meaningfully.
  • Find Balance: Match your energy at work to your energy with family, friends, and community. Decide and align your priorities. Pour into yourself and those around you.
  • Own It: Take the extra step. Fix issues when they come up. Care from start to finish. Do the right thing, every time.

Job Summary: Field-facing role that proactively engages existing fleet customers and prospects new local customers for parts and service. Educates on Model 1 offerings (parts, service, warranty, vehicle lines, commercial upfitting), captures fleet size/ composition, hands off to internal owners (Parts, Service, Sales), and follows through until the customer’s need is fulfilled and satisfaction is confirmed.
