Dedicated automotive technician with extensive experience gained from military service, starting at age 18. A pivotal moment occurred when a sergeant demonstrated the intricacies of oil changes, igniting a lifelong commitment to the craft. Committed to excellence in all aspects of vehicle maintenance and repair, this profession represents more than employment; it embodies a true calling and a lifelong pursuit of mastery in the automotive field.
I was responsible for any and all malfunctions with vehicle. Contacting corporate office with updates on potential risk assessments of new vehicles. Using all automotive manufacturer tools and equipment.
I responsible for the day to day of operations of a retail chain. Inventory, keeping track of payroll and expenses. Maintained payroll and parts. I had a total of 5 technicians and 2 advisors under me.
I ran the service shop most of my shift. Dispatching vehicles to technicians, which vehicles needed to be looked at first. I was in charge of parts for vehicles in bay and contacting warehouses to get parts as soon as possible. A few days a week I would run front shop open and close. Talk to customers and build RO's.
I had one person under me. I trained him under my wing because he asked to learn. I was the foremen, the service manager and technician. I work with part warehouses every month on what we could keep in stock and concerns we may of had. How to get parts cheaper. I also repaired all vehicles and went to the auction on occasion to help pick out our potential lot vehicles.
