    REQUIREMENTS

  • Prior automotive service management experience (GM experience strongly preferred)
  • Proficiency in CDK Software
  • Strong knowledge of GM warranty administration and service processes
  • Demonstrated success increasing production hours and operational efficiency
  • Ability to lead experienced technicians and strong personalities with professionalism and consistency
  • Solution-oriented leadership style with a focus on accountability
