Automotive Service Advisor – A Career You Love Without Giving Up Your Life

Imagine having a 3-day weekend every week.
No Saturdays. No Sundays. One weekday off. More time for family, projects, rest, or actually enjoying life.

At Bernhard Auto Works , we believe great people shouldn’t have to burn out to build a great career. That’s why our Service Advisors work a 4-day work week in a professional, team-first environment where integrity, growth, and customer care come first.

If you’re looking for meaningful work, a supportive team, and real work-life balance — this is different from most shops you’ve seen.

This Role Is Bigger Than Writing Repair Orders

As a Service Advisor here, you’re not just scheduling work.
You are:

  • The calm voice when a customer is stressed.
  • The translator between technicians and vehicle owners.
  • The person who sets expectations and keeps commitments.
  • The guide customers trust to help them make smart decisions.


Around here, we are ALL in the customer service business — and we take that seriously.

The Kind of Culture You’re Joining

This is a team-first, ego-free environment.

We believe in:

  • Doing the right thing — even when it’s hard.
  • Checking the ego at the door.
  • Blameless problem solving — fix it, learn, improve.
  • Continuous improvement — good is never good enough.
  • Going the extra mile — that’s where great lives.
  • Honoring commitments — to customers and each other.
  • Embracing change and growing through it.

And yes… we work hard — but we keep things fun and support each other like family.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

  • 4-Day Work Week — No Weekends.
  • Supportive, close-knit team environment.
  • Climate-controlled shop (A/C in the bays!).
  • Health insurance.
  • Paid vacation & holidays.
  • Ongoing paid training & career development — we are a training company.

We expect professionalism, responsibility, and effort — and in return, we give stability, growth, and a life outside of work.

What Does it Feel Like to Work Here? Just ask the Team!

“It’s a fun time, working with friends that I get along great with and we get to have fun while making money and accomplishing goals.”

“It feels like family. We all work well together and as a team can accomplish anything.”

“Great place to work. Feeling welcomed everyday is what helps people grow.”

“It’s awesome! Great to work with everyone here.”

“It feels like a constantly good battle of trying to better myself and coworkers being supportive yet hard on each other to provide the best service possible.”

What We’re Looking For:

  • 2+ years as an Automotive Service Advisor or a strong customer-facing role in automotive.
  • Excellent communication skills — you listen first and explain clearly.
  • Ability to set expectations and follow through.
  • Comfortable with shop software, tablets, and digital inspections.
  • A positive, adaptable, team-oriented personality.
  • Someone who takes responsibility, is punctual, and takes pride in their appearance and work.

Don’t have every technical skill?
If you bring integrity, effort, and people skills — we can teach the rest.

This could be another job.
Or it could be the place where your work has meaning, your team has your back, and your growth never stops.
