Assistant Manager

Ready to turn your customer service and sales skills into a long-term career?

We're looking for a high-energy, people-first Assistant Manager to join our auto repair team. If you love helping people, enjoy solving problems, and are great on the phone, this is your chance to step into a leadership role with serious career growth potential - no auto repair experience required.

This is more than a job - it's a launchpad into a career in the fast-paced automotive service industry. We'll teach you everything you need to know about auto repair sales and operations - what we need from you is outstanding communication skills, a sharp sales mindset, and the confidence to lead from the front.

What You'll Do

  • Be the first point of contact for our customers, often over the phone - delivering a helpful, professional, and upbeat experience every time.
  • Guide customers through our services and build trust by clearly explaining their options.
  • Drive sales by identifying customer needs and recommending the right solutions.
  • Support the Store Manager in day-to-day operations, from staff supervision to workflow coordination.
  • Step in as acting manager when needed and take ownership of the customer experience.
  • Help build a culture of excellence, respect, and teamwork.

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience in customer service and/or sales - retail, hospitality, call center, or similar is great.
  • Strong phone communication skills - you're comfortable, persuasive, and personable on the line.
  • Natural ability to build rapport, listen actively, and close the sale.
  • Positive energy, reliability, and a team-first attitude.
  • Eagerness to learn about auto repair services and grow into a management or sales leadership role.

Why Join Us?

  • Career path clarity: This is a stepping-stone toward Store Manager, Sales Director, or even Operations leadership.
  • Training built in: We provide hands-on training in sales strategy, team leadership, and automotive knowledge.
  • Dynamic work environment: Every day is different - and every customer is a chance to make a difference.

Bonus (but not required):

  • Experience in the automotive, service, or repair industry
  • Bilingual or multilingual skills
  • Prior experience in managing people or shift leadership

If you're ready to grow your career in a company that invests in its people, we want to hear from you.

Compensation: $45,000.00 - $55,000.00 per year

As a leader in the automotive aftermarket, Meineke is constantly looking for driven and talented individuals to join our team. In over 700 shops spanning coast-to-coast, we look for those who share our passion for high quality repair work to help get our customers back on the road.

A career with Meineke means putting your knowledge and hard-earned skills to work in a locally-owned shop. Whether you're looking for a position as a Shop Manager, Technician, or Service Advisor, Meineke provides opportunities for real-world experience in your local area.
