What are the responsibilities and job description for the Collision Technician / Body Shop Manager position at White's Queen City Motors?
White’s Queen City Chevrolet is seeking a Collision Technician / Body Shop Manager to run our two-bay body shop and paint booth. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to take ownership of the entire process—from estimating, repair, and prep to paint and final delivery—while working directly with customers and the dealership team.
Our current manager is retiring after 36 years, leaving behind a well-equipped shop and a loyal customer base. We’re looking for the right person to carry on that legacy and, if desired, grow the shop further with the backing of our multi-state, 25-location dealer group.
Compensation depends on experience and production.
What You’ll Do:
- Manage the body shop as a one-person operation, handling the full cycle of work.
- Write accurate estimates and communicate clearly with customers.
- Perform collision repair, body work, prepping, and refinishing.
- Deliver high-quality results with a focus on customer satisfaction.
- Maintain a clean, organized, and efficient shop environment.
- Collaborate with dealership leadership on opportunities to expand business.
What We’re Looking For:
- Skilled collision repair professional with hands-on experience in body, prep, and paint.
- Ability to manage all aspects of the process independently.
- Strong communication and customer service skills.
- Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and reliable.
- Desire to build and grow the shop long-term.
What We Offer:
- Small-town family dealership culture with the backing of a large dealer group.
- Modern two-bay shop, paint booth, and work areas ready to go.
- Competitive pay plan based on experience and performance.
- Full dealership benefits package (health, dental, vision, retirement, paid time off, and more).
- Stability and support from an organization with 25 locations across multiple states.
If you’re ready to take full ownership of a shop, deliver quality work, and make a name for yourself in a supportive dealership environment, we want to talk to you.
