Our client, a prestige franchise-approved car dealership based in the Cardiff region, is currently looking to recruit a Service Advisor to join their business.

Reporting to the Service Manager, you will work alongside a large team of Vehicle Service Advisors, managing workloads and customer deadlines by allocating tasks and ensuring our clients' customers receive the best experience. Operating a very busy department, seeing between 10-12 customers a day, this role will involve extensively liaising with the workshop to chase work in progress, keep customers informed of the progress of their vehicle, and up-sell on additional products and services where possible. 

The successful candidate would ideally be able to deliver the very highest level of customer service through strong communication skills, resulting in total customer satisfaction. Strong organisational skills, along with IT literacy (any experience with Keyloop preferable), would be of high priority. Recent or current experience as a Vehicle Service Advisor or a similar role within the automotive industry would be essential for our client, and this is a fantastic chance for someone to take the next step in their career into a more senior role.

  • Service plans are £25 each on top of this, also! 
  • Overtime, subject to availability, paid additionally at the standard rate.
  • 25 days of annual leave plus the 8 bank holidays.
  • CBS (Car Buyer Scheme) is available. 
  • Workplace pension scheme. 
  • Access to in-house guidance & manufacturer-accredited training at our clients' academy.

  • Fantastic career development prospects with an industry-leading premium brand and a nationwide company operating for over 40 years that is recognised as a "Best Place to Work" by Glassdoor.
