Build Your Automotive Career the Right Way, With a Program Built to Get You There

Just graduated from automotive school? Already a year into turning wrenches at an independent shop and ready for the next step? Pride Motor Group is hiring 2 to 4 Apprentice Technicians at our Chevrolet store in Lynn, and we didn't just slap "entry level" on a job posting and call it a day. We built an actual in-house apprenticeship program that moves you toward factory certification, more pay, and more responsibility on a defined timeline, not a vague promise.

If you've got the drive, we've got the wrench, the training, and a coach in your corner to help you get there fast.

Why Pride Motor Group

We're in the business of selling and servicing new and used vehicles while providing an exceptional customer experience, and our technicians are the backbone of that promise. Pride Motor Group has been a family-owned business for over 40 years. Suzanne Iovanna stepped into ownership unexpectedly in 2014, earned her NADA dealer certification, trained directly with Kia and Hyundai in Korea, and became one of the only women dealer principals in the country. That same determination is what she expects her team to build their careers on. As an apprentice here, you won't just be handed a bay and left to figure it out. You'll work alongside experienced technicians, get access to full OEM and in-house training, and have a dedicated Car Motivators coach helping you build the habits and skills that turn an apprentice into an A-tech.

and proud members of the Lynn Chamber of Commerce
