Reporting to the Service Manager and working as part of a friendly team, as a Service Advisor, your key duties shall include:
- Dealing with customers and ensuring customer satisfaction.
- Utilising workshop loading and ensuring it is up to date.
- Regularly and proactively keeping customers up to date with progress on their vehicle
- Booking in vehicles. Ensure appointments are convenient for the customer and department, in line with the workshop capacity.
- Identify the customer requirements and, where possible, supply an accurate, fully inclusive costing.
- Produce accurate job cards, invoices, estimates and related information.
- Provide customers with full explanations of work carried out, making the most of any additional selling opportunities.
- Produce warranty job cards in line with the manufacturer's policy and procedures.
- Accurately record all work requirements and identify retail, warranty, internal and non-chargeable repairs.
- Liaise with the Parts Department to ensure availability of parts.
Strong organisational skills, along with IT literacy (any experience with Kerridge/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.
A UK driving licence with minimal points is, however, essential. Liaising with the vehicle manufacturer to authorise warranty repairs and general knowledge of warranty procedures or commercial vehicles would be highly advantageous, but is not essential.
