What are the responsibilities and job description for the Parts Support Specialist position at Swickard Management Company, Swickard Auto Group?
Description
Mercedes-Benz | Luxury & Hospitality | Launch a career in parts operations!
The parts department doesn’t get the spotlight — but nothing moves without it. Every repair that gets done, every van that leaves on time, every technician who stays productive depends on a parts team that’s organized, accurate, and fast. If you’re someone who takes pride in doing the behind-the-scenes work that makes everything else possible, we want to meet you.
We’re building the parts support team for a brand-new operation, and we’re filling multiple full-time roles. No automotive parts experience required — we will train the right people. What we can’t teach is work ethic, attention to detail, and a hospitality mindset. Bring those, and we’ll build the rest together.
ABOUT MERCEDES-BENZ VAN CENTER OF VANCOUVER
The Mercedes-Benz Van Center of Vancouver is a brand-new, dedicated Sprinter Van Center opening in August 2026 in the heart of the Vancouver/Portland metro area. We are not just another dealership — we are a purpose-built facility focused exclusively on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans, serving businesses, commercial fleets, adventure enthusiasts, and hospitality partners across the Pacific Northwest.
This is a rare ground-floor opportunity. You won’t be inheriting someone else’s culture or fitting into an existing mold — you’ll be helping to build it. At our Van Center, hospitality is a core value, not a department. Every team member plays a role in delivering an experience that is warm, professional, and genuinely different from anything in our market.

• Sharp attention to detail — parts accuracy directly affects technician productivity and guest satisfaction
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment where priorities can shift quickly
