Do you enjoy working on people’s vehicles and would you like to be a part of the nation’s largest and most advanced automotive service retailer?

 

Our stores are full service shops and we feel very strongly that our Automotive Technicians are the lifeblood of our organization.

 

Over the last few years, at a time when many dealers were closing their doors, we were experiencing tremendous growth. In fact, as todays consumers continue to hold on to their vehicles for a longer and longer period of time, they increasingly trust and depend on us to maintain what is often their lifeline and second largest investment. Our technicians enjoy a very high level of stability because our stores are not dependent on highly cyclical and unstable new car sales.
 
Together with Bridgestone Retail Operations we have over 2,200 in 23 states and we continue to open more each year.

 

But we know we wouldn’t have any stores if we didn’t employ the very best mechanics in the industry! We take pride in hiring the very best technicians, who are responsible for diagnosing, repairing and performing preventive maintenance on our customers vehicles.

 

But isn’t the car dealer the best place for top technicians? THINK AGAN, AND HERE IS WHY:

 

Most dealers don’t offer the benefits and stability that we do.

 

We offer outstanding compensation and a benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, prescription drugs, 401(k), paid holidays and vacation. Other privileges include teammate discounts, credit union membership, and teammate assistance programs. Does your current employer offer all of this?

 

At a time when many dealers were closing or experiencing management shuffle after shuffle, our technicians enjoyed job stability as we continued to open stores and experience increased service sales. We bring more stability, because our business isn’t dependent on the volatility of new car sales!

 

At Tires Plus and Bridgestone, we want you to grow and expand in your career. We actually pay our technician’s ASEs AND provide our technicians with a Bonus for each that they pass!

 

If you have a winning attitude and would like a long term career with a great company, we are interested in speaking with you. If you work well in a team environment, have a drive to succeed in a customer centric and performance based culture and a superior ethical foundation, this may be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.
