Drive Shop Excellence: Parts Manager & Shop Assistant – A Dynamic Leadership Role

Are you an automotive professional who understands that a profitable shop runs on precision, timing, and expert coordination? Walker Automotive is looking for a high-level Parts Manager & Shop Assistant to serve as the heartbeat of our shop operations.

This isn't just a "parts-pulling" job; it is a multifaceted leadership position designed for someone who knows their way around an engine bay as well as they know their way around a profit and loss statement. You will be the bridge between our technicians and our customers, ensuring every repair is high-quality, transparent, and efficient.

The Role: Architect of Efficiency

As our Parts Manager & Shop Assistant, you oversee the daily flow of the shop, ensuring our Master Technicians have exactly what they need to succeed.

Operational Control: Prioritize technician workflow to maximize efficiency and maintain a safe, organized work environment.
Quality Assurance: Act as a final set of eyes, inspecting repairs through our mandatory Phase 4 Quality Check process to ensure they meet our strict standards for safety and reliability.
Strategic Procurement: Manage vendor relationships and negotiate pricing to keep costs controlled while ensuring zero downtime for technicians.
Hands-On Support: Assist technicians directly with diagnostics and repairs when a job needs an extra set of skilled hands to keep the shop moving.
Workflow Mastery: Manage all parts check-ins, documentation, and core tracking through Tekmetric, our advanced shop management software.

High-Yield Compensation & Future-Focused Benefits

We believe that the leaders responsible for shop efficiency should share in the shop's success.

High Earning Potential: Earn between $60,000 and $90,000 per year, rewarding your expertise and contribution to shop productivity.
NEW: Profit-Sharing Retirement Plan: We are invested in your future. Our new profit-sharing plan ensures that as you drive the company’s profitability and efficiency, you are building a substantial retirement nest egg alongside us.
Health & Wellness: Includes competitive benefits such as Paid Holidays and Paid Vacation Time.
