• Other duties may be assigned at any time based on departmental needs.

What We’re Looking For

• 7 years of heavy-duty truck maintenance and repair experience.
• 3–5 years of experience in a lead technician, foreman, or supervisory role.
• Strong leadership, coaching, and team-building skills with a positive, team-first attitude.
• Experience leading teams, managing performance, and developing employees.
• Ability to prioritize and manage multiple responsibilities in a fast-paced environment.
• Proven ability to build and maintain strong relationships with customers, employees, vendors, and business partners.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to communicate professionally and effectively with customers, drivers, technicians, vendors, and employees at all levels of the organization.
• Strong organizational, problem-solving, decision-making, and conflict-resolution skills.
• Demonstrated computer proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, and Outlook), email, internet research, and customer relationship management (CRM) systems.
• Ability to quickly learn and effectively use dealership management software for work order management, customer accounts, scheduling, and reporting.
• Valid driver's license with a satisfactory driving record that meets company insurability requirements.
• Class A or B Commercial Driver's License (CDL), or the ability to obtain one within six (6) months of hire.
