Automobile Damage Appraiser

Founded in 1947, Southern Auto Auction is the nation's largest independently owned and operated auto auction. Family-owned and family-run, we've built nearly eight decades of steady growth by combining old-fashioned reliability with a forward-thinking approach to the auction business. We're looking to add a detail-oriented Automobile Damage Appraiser to our growing team.

As an Appraiser, you'll be the eyes and expertise behind every vehicle that crosses our auction block. You'll inspect vehicles, document their condition, and capture photographs that give our buyers — both online and in person — the accurate, trustworthy information they need to bid with confidence.

What You'll Do:

• Verify matching VIN numbers on each vehicle
• Inspect and confirm engine size, transmission type, color, trim code, and mileage
• Check odometer readings in miles and/or kilometers
• Document any pre-existing physical or mechanical damage
• Identify, document, and price current physical or mechanical damage
• Photograph each vehicle thoroughly, including overall condition, damage, and any prior repairs
• Upload appraisal findings and images via handheld computer for each account
• Support other auction operations as needed

What You Bring:

• Comfort working outdoors in all weather conditions
• Must be 18 years of age or older
• A valid driver's license and clean driving record
• High school diploma or equivalent
• 2+ years of experience in the automotive industry
• Basic computer proficiency

All offers of employment are contingent on successful completion of a pre-employment background check and drug screening.

We invest in our team with a comprehensive benefits package, including:

• 401(k) with company match
• Employer-vested Profit-Sharing Plan
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Employer provided life insurance
• Flexible spending account
