Full time Receptionist
Toyota of Olympia | Tumwater, WA
Toyota of Olympia is looking for a professional, organized, and customer-focused Receptionist to join our team Monday through Thursday.
This role is far more than simply answering phones and greeting customers. Our reception team plays a critical role in the daily flow and organization of the dealership and must be able to thrive in a fast-paced, high-interaction environment while balancing multiple responsibilities at once.
The ideal candidate is someone who is warm and welcoming with customers, but also highly efficient, detail-oriented, and capable of staying organized and composed during extremely busy periods.
What You’ll Do
- Greet customers warmly and professionally upon arrival
- Answer and direct multi-line phone calls efficiently and accurately
- Assist customers, employees, and visitors throughout the dealership
- Support sales and service departments with daily operational tasks
- Complete a variety of clerical and administrative responsibilities throughout the day
- Assist with vehicle stocking, key management, license plate processing, and internal coordination tasks
- Maintain organization and communication across departments
- Help keep the front desk and reception area polished, professional, and running smoothly
- Create a welcoming and professional first impression for every customer

- Thrives in a high-energy, fast-moving environment
- Is highly organized and detail-oriented

- Learns quickly and adapts easily
- Has strong communication and customer service skills
- Is dependable, proactive, and team-oriented

- Strong verbal and written communication skills
- Comfortable answering multi-line phones and navigating computer systems
