Job description
Service Advisor
At Rick Hill Imports - Kingsport, TN, we're not just selling and servicing cars -- we're crafting long-term relationships and exceptional experiences. As a premier luxury automotive dealership, we take pride in representing world-class brands and delivering world-class service with a hometown feel. We value our employees and want to create a flexible and healthy team environment. We want to help your career but we don't want your personal life to take a hit because of it.
Job Overview: As a Service Advisor, you will be the vital link between our customer base and the service team. You will identify the need for, sell, and schedule service work.

This position is centered around building relationships with our BMW clients, and doing what you can to keep them on the road safely and happily. Please note that this position does not require you to have prior knowledge of our vehicles or standard services. While it is helpful, it is not required and you will learn quickly.
Key Responsibilities:
Customer Interaction: Greet customers warmly and professionally, assess their service needs, and ensure a seamless check-in and check-out process. Establish ongoing relationships with our BMW owners.
Service Consultation: Explain service options, recommend necessary maintenance and repairs, responsibly promote the sale of necessary services, parts and accessories, and provide accurate cost and time estimates.
Coordination: Act as the communication hub between the customer and the service team, ensuring a smooth process with clear and timely updates.
Documentation: Accurately create, update, and maintain service records, warranty claims, and repair orders.
Customer Satisfaction: Ensure each customer leaves with a clear understanding of services performed and a sense of confidence in our dealership.

A passion for delivering outstanding customer service.
Ability to multitask in a fast-paced environment while maintaining attention to detail.
