Job description

Be the Voice, the Guide, and the Trust Builder at First Automotive.

Service Advisor – Liverpool, NY

No Weekends | High Autonomy | Big Impact

You know that person who can explain anything clearly — whether it’s a restaurant recommendation or why something matters — and people just trust them?

The one who can juggle conversations, make someone feel heard, and keep the day moving without breaking a sweat?

That’s who we’re looking for.

At First Automotive , we’re raising the standard for what a service experience should be. We don’t just fix cars. We guide people, protect them, and give them peace of mind. And none of that happens without a great Service Advisor leading the customer journey from start to finish.

What You’ll Do (The Real Job) :

Create an experience customers remember :

  • Greet every customer like you already know them.
  • Set expectations clearly at drop-off : timing, approvals, communication style, the digital inspection process.

Translate technician findings into human language :

  • Present digital inspections with clarity — photos, arrows, simple explanations.
  • Build organized estimates : customer concern first, then safety, then maintenance.
  • Keep customers informed from start to finish :

  • Proactive updates — morning and mid-afternoon. Customers never chase us.
  • Walk customers through repairs at pickup and schedule the next visit.
  • Make thank-you calls at ~7 days and reach out on deferred work at ~21 days.
  • Own the workflow that keeps the shop productive :

  • Build accurate work orders and confirm customer / vehicle info.
  • Coordinate with the Shop Foreman to prioritize diagnostics, inspections, and sold work.
  • Make sure every DVI meets standards — photos, captions, clear notes.
  • Run the front with discipline and professionalism :

  • Order parts, verify deliveries, manage cores and returns.
  • Handle deposits, discounts, AAA, and Royalty Rewards correctly.
  • Perform daily closeout, balance the drawer, prep deposits, and manage the inbox.
  • Oversee loaner vehicle agreements, inspections, and Stripe pre-authorizations.
  • Everything the customer experiences — clarity, trust, follow-through — starts with you.

    Why You’ll Love It Here :

  • No weekends. Ever.
  • Full training on systems, processes, and automotive basics.
  • High autonomy — we trust you to run the front with confidence.
  • Supportive team, no micromanaging, no drama.
  • Growing, locally owned shop with a strong reputation in the Liverpool community.
  • Your voice matters. Your work directly drives shop success.
  • What We’re Looking For :

  • Experience as a service advisor or strong customer-facing experience in a fast-paced environment.
  • Excellent communicator — verbal, written, and visual.
  • Organized, detail-oriented, and steady under pressure.
  • Comfortable with technology (phones, tablets, software).
  • Able to guide customers through decisions without pressure.
  • A relationship builder who takes pride in doing things the right way.
  • Perks & Details :

  • Full-time, on-site in Liverpool, NY.
  • Competitive pay.
  • PTO, paid holidays, health benefits.
  • Paid gym membership.
  • Ongoing training and career growth.
  • A team and culture built on trust, transparency, and respect.
  • What Our Customers Say :

    “Honest, friendly, and professional.”

    “They explain everything and make it easy to understand.”

    “Best shop in the area — I won’t go anywhere else.”

    If You Want a Role Where You Matter — This Is It.

    Apply today and become the person customers trust, technicians rely on, and the shop depends on.

    First Automotive is an equal opportunity employer committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and welcoming team that reflects the community we serve.
