    Job Description

    Automotive Service Manager (High-Volume Shop)

    Location: Philadelphia, PA

    Compensation: $100,000 – $150,000+ (Base + Performance Bonuses)


    About the Opportunity

    AutoShop Recruiting is partnering with a high-performing, multi-location automotive group in the PA/NJ market seeking a proven Service Manager to take over and elevate an already busy location.


    This is not a turnaround from scratch—the car count is there (~150 vehicles/week) and the surrounding stores are producing $40K–$50K+ weekly revenue. The opportunity is to install the right leader, optimize process, and unlock the store’s full potential. With the right leadership, this location is positioned to immediately scale into a $60K–$80K/week operation and beyond.


    Why This Role Stands Out

    • High car count already in place – no need to “build traffic”
    • Strong support system with multiple high-performing sister stores nearby
    • Proven playbook and leadership infrastructure
    • Clear path to multi-unit leadership or higher-level roles
    • Opportunity to step into a business that can realistically grow into a $3M–$4M+ store


    This is a plug-and-produce leadership role for someone who knows how to run a shop, lead people, and drive results.

    What You’ll Be Responsible For

    • Full P&L ownership of the shop
    • Leading, coaching, and developing technicians and advisors
    • Driving car count conversion and maximizing ARO
    • Maintaining workflow efficiency and eliminating bottlenecks
    • Ensuring every customer leaves safer than they arrived
    • Building a strong, performance-driven culture
    • Managing payroll, inventory, and shop KPIs
    • Resolving customer concerns and maintaining high satisfaction
    • Implementing process improvements to increase throughput and profitability


    What We’re Looking For

    • 5+ years of automotive service management experience (10+ preferred)
    • Experience running a high-volume shop
    • Strong leadership presence—someone who can own the business
    • Customer-first mindset with a focus on safety and trust
    • Ability to diagnose operational inefficiencies and fix them
    • Track record of driving revenue, GP%, and team performance
    • Entrepreneurial mindset—not someone who needs to be micromanaged


    Compensation & Benefits

    • $100,000 – $150,000+ total earning potential
    • Weekly pay structure with performance-based bonuses
    • 401(k) with company match
    • Health, dental, and vision insurance
    • Paid time off + major holidays
    • Closed Sundays
    • Ongoing leadership development and training
    • Clear advancement opportunities within a growing organization


    Culture & Environment

    • Performance-driven, results-oriented team
    • Strong belief in:
    • “If the customer is taken care of, the team wins—and the business wins.”
    • Collaborative leadership with hands-on support from upper management
    • Small business feel with large-scale opportunity


    Interview Process

    • Initial interview with leadership
    • Paid working interview (4 hours) to evaluate fit both ways
    • Final discussion and offer


    Bottom Line

    If you’re a proven Service Manager who knows how to:

    • Drive production
    • Lead teams
    • Maximize opportunity in a busy shop

    …this is a high-upside role where your performance directly translates into income and growth.
