Job Description
Job Description
High-Volume Automotive Service Advisor
Location: DeSoto, TX
Schedule: Five-day workweek with two consecutive days off; shop is open seven days a week
Compensation: Competitive base + aggressive bonus structure | $75,000–$130,000 total compensation potential
AutoShop Recruiting has partnered with an established independent automotive shop to locate a high-performing hungry, proven Service Advisor for an incredibly busy, high-volume service center in Desoto, Texas, who thrives in a fast-paced independent repair shop environment. This shop generates more than $500,000 in monthly sales, so we need a producer who can manage heavy car count, build accurate estimates, source parts, close large repair orders, and maintain customer trust.
This is not an entry-level position or a traditional dealership lane role.
What You’ll Do
- Complete our advisor-led Rack Attack inspection process
- Identify and prioritize safety, maintenance, and repair needs
- Source aftermarket, OEM, dealer, and specialty parts
- Verify pricing, availability, labor requirements, and warranty coverage
- Build accurate, profitable estimates
- Present complete repair recommendations and ask for the sale
- Manage customer communication from vehicle drop-off through delivery
- Coordinate workflow with technicians, vendors, and management
- Process parts, labor, aftermarket, and extended-warranty claims
- Follow up on declined services and unresolved recommendations
- Manage multiple repair orders in a high-volume environment
What You Must Bring
- Three or more years of successful automotive service-advisor experience
- Proven results in a high-volume independent repair shop, or tire and service center
- Strong automotive technical and repair-estimating knowledge
- Hands-on parts sourcing and warranty-processing experience
- Strong closing, objection-handling, organization, and follow-up skills
- Ability to work a five-day schedule with rotating weekend availability required
- Valid driver’s license and insurable driving record
Dealership experience alone is not enough unless you have personally sourced parts, built estimates, administered warranties, and owned the complete repair order.
Benefits
- $75,000–$130,000 earning potential
- Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance
- Paid time off
- Established customer base and consistent repair opportunities
- Structured operating processes
- Family-owned DeSoto shop serving the community since 1979
If you're a proven advisor who needs to earn six figures, and you're ready to show your measurable results, including monthly sales, average repair order, closing percentage, or car count - then APPLY NOW!
