We are looking for an enthusiastic, customer-focused Service Advisor to join our team in Northampton. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys working with people, has a passion for delivering exceptional customer service, and wants to build a rewarding career within the automotive industry.

- Preparing and explaining estimates and keeping customers informed throughout the repair process
- Liaising closely with technicians and the workshop team to ensure work is completed efficiently

- Advising customers on additional work or maintenance requirements identified during inspections
- Ensuring all customer expectations are managed and met
- Maintaining accurate records and ensuring all work is invoiced correctly
- Delivering an outstanding customer experience at every stage.
About you
We're looking for someone who:
- Has previous experience in a customer-facing role, ideally within automotive aftersales
- Has excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Is organised and able to manage multiple priorities in a busy environment
- Has a strong attention to detail
- Is commercially aware and confident discussing costs and additional work with customers
- Takes pride in delivering exceptional customer service
- Is a positive team player with a professional approach
- Has a genuine interest in the automotive industry
Previous Service Advisor or automotive aftersales experience is highly desirable, but we're also interested in hearing from candidates with strong customer service and communication skills who are looking to develop their career in automotive.
We believe in rewarding our people and supporting them both at work and outside of it. Our benefits include:
- Your birthday off
- GP service
- Life insurance
- Annual leave that increases with length of service
- Paid time off to volunteer
- Attractive bonus and earning potential
