Are you a former technician, shop foreman, fleet maintenance professional, service advisor, or OEM warranty administrator looking to leverage your mechanical expertise without spending every day in the shop?
As a Fleet Service Advisor I, you'll serve as a trusted maintenance partner for commercial fleet customers, acting as an extension of their maintenance department. In this role, you will review repair recommendations, evaluate maintenance needs, authorize repairs, and help customers balance vehicle uptime, safety, and maintenance costs.
Using your mechanical expertise and sound judgment, you'll ensure repairs adhere to customer maintenance programs, OEM guidelines, and industry best practices while delivering an exceptional customer experience. Fleet Service Advisors work closely with repair facilities, technicians, vendors, and customers to make informed maintenance decisions, control costs, and minimize vehicle downtime.
This is an ideal opportunity for individuals with automotive, diesel, trucking, dealership, fleet maintenance, warranty administration, or service advising experience who want to transition their hands-on technical knowledge into a remote, office-based role while continuing to solve complex maintenance and repair challenges.
Work Schedule: This position supports a 10:00 AM - 7:00 PM Eastern Time shift.
Work Location: This position may be performed remotely anywhere within the United States. Qualified candidates will be considered regardless of geographic location.
