Service Advisor

Temecula Valley Toyota is the fastest growing Toyota dealership in the USA with phenomenal customer satisfaction. If you are an enthusiastic self‑starter with a passion for customer service, sales and enjoy working with people, then you need to be a part of our team.

The Service Advisor is the center of communication for service/repair activities and the liaison between customers and technicians. Serving as the primary point-of-contact for all automotive service and repair matters, the Service Advisor listens and thoroughly understands customer problems, arranges appropriate service/repairs and manages expectations between customers and technicians. The Service Advisor ensures the customer knows what repairs are needed and what maintenance is recommended, and delivers first‑time, timely, quality service.

The ideal candidate has a high school diploma or GED, some post‑secondary automotive training or experience, Service Advisor experience, an unrestricted driver’s license and a clean driving record, and a strong technical and customer‑service performance record. ASE certification is a plus. Candidates must work productively in a fast‑paced team environment, maintain a positive attitude, professional appearance, excellent communication skills and deliver world‑class customer service.

In addition to competitive pay, we offer our employees health, dental, vision, life, 401(k), a health & wellness program, community involvement and company‑paid vacation and holidays.
