Description

Seattle, WA | Volvo | Premium luxury brand | Veterans encouraged to apply | Great Career Starter! No automotive experience is required | Income potential: $55,000 - $80,000 annually

  

Swickard Auto Group is a hospitality company that happens to sell and service cars. We believe the best guest experiences start with the best employee experiences. That's why we've grown to 40+ rooftops across the West Coast, Alaska, and Hawaii while maintaining a culture built on one simple idea: do right by people, every time.


At Volvo Cars Seattle, you're representing a brand built on safety, thoughtful design, and a genuine respect for people. That's a natural fit for someone who leads with hospitality.


WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Greet and check in guests for express service with warmth, efficiency, and professionalism

• Communicate service needs, timelines, and updates clearly -- keeping guests informed and at ease throughout the process

• Coordinate loaner vehicle logistics -- scheduling, check-out, check-in, and condition documentation -- so every transition is seamless for the guest

• Manage internal inventory movement, ensuring vehicles are tracked, staged, and ready when guests need them

• Partner with technicians and service management to keep the express lane moving efficiently

• Identify and present additional service recommendations that protect guest safety and vehicle value

• Maintain accurate records in the DMS and follow all documentation standards

• Contribute to a service environment where every guest leaves feeling taken care of -- not just checked off a list


WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Experience in automotive service is a plus -- but it's not the starting point. We can teach the process. We can't teach the mindset. If you're organized, guest-focused, and thrive in a fast-moving environment, you have the foundation to succeed here.

• Service advisor or automotive experience preferred -- but not required

• Proven success and experience in a guest-facing, service, hospitality, or coordination role

• Strong organizational skills -- able to manage multiple moving pieces without losing accuracy or composure

• Clear, confident communicator with guests, technicians, and teammates

• Comfortable coordinating logistics -- loaner vehicles, internal inventory, scheduling -- with attention to detail

• Tech-savvy -- comfortable learning DMS platforms and digital communication tools

• Valid driver's license with a clean driving record

• A hospitality mindset -- you treat every guest interaction like it matters, because it does


WHAT WE OFFER

Income potential of $55,000 - $80,000+ annually

• Paid training program -- we'll build your automotive knowledge from the ground up if needed

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance

• Life insurance and supplemental coverage options

• Paid time off and paid holidays

• Clear career path -- express advisors grow into full service advisor and service management roles

• Employee vehicle purchase and service discounts

• A team culture built on standards, accountability, and genuine care for one another
