Automotive Service Advisor – Build a Career with Balance, Structure, and a Team That Has Your Back

What if you could grow professionally, work inside a strong operating system, and enjoy a 3-day weekend every week?

At Bernhard Auto Works , we believe high performance and work-life balance should go together. That’s why our Service Advisors work a 4-day work week (No Weekends) inside a supportive, process-driven, family-oriented culture.

We’re not looking for someone to just “write tickets.”
We’re looking for a professional who values clarity, teamwork, accountability, and growth — and wants to make a real impact on customers’ lives.

What Great Advisors Value — And What You’ll Find Here

The best Service Advisors want more than a paycheck. They want:

  • Clear processes so expectations aren’t confusing.
  • A team that communicates and supports each other.
  • Leadership that invests in training and development.
  • Accountability without blame.
  • Stability and work-life balance.
  • Room to grow, improve, and build a long-term career.

That’s what we’ve built at Bernhard Auto Works.

Our Operating System – How We Create Stability & Success

We operate on clearly defined processes and 17 company Fundamentals that guide how we treat customers and each other.

A few that define this role:

  • Do the right thing — even when it’s hard.
  • Set and ask for expectations — clarity prevents frustration.
  • Honor commitments — customers and teammates count on us.
  • Practice blameless problem solving — fix it, learn from it, improve it.
  • Continuously improve everything you do.
  • Bring it every day with energy and purpose.
  • Check the ego at the door — we win as a team.


This structure creates consistency for customers and reduces chaos for advisors.

You won’t be guessing what “good” looks like. You’ll know.

The Role: Automotive Service Advisor

You are the leader of the customer experience.

You will:

  • Build trust through clear, confident communication.
  • Present digital inspections and repair plans with integrity.
  • Set realistic expectations and follow through.
  • Work closely with technicians to ensure accurate execution.
  • Manage workflow with professionalism and positivity.
  • Take responsibility for your results and growth.


We believe we are ALL in the customer service business , and this role sets the tone.

What We’re Looking For:

  • 2+ years as an Automotive Service Advisor (or strong automotive customer-facing experience).
  • Strong communication skills rooted in honesty and empathy.
  • Comfort with shop management software & digital inspections.
  • Professional appearance and punctuality.
  • A team-first mindset.
  • A desire to grow and continuously improve.


Don’t check every single box?
If you have integrity, energy, and strong people skills — we can help you develop the rest.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

  • 4-Day Work Week – No Weekends .
  • Supportive, close-knit team — we truly operate like family.
  • Climate-controlled shop.
  • Health insurance.
  • Paid vacation & holidays.
  • Ongoing paid training & career development — we are a training company.
  • A culture that works hard but keeps things fun.

We believe people perform best when they feel supported, respected, and balanced.

Room to Thrive

This is not a stagnant role.

You’ll have opportunities to:

  • Increase responsibility and influence.
  • Develop advanced communication and leadership skills.
  • Contribute to process improvement.
  • Build a long-term career inside a stable, growing organization.


If you value structure, accountability, culture, and work-life balance — this could be the right fit.

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.
