Store Counter Sales

We are so much more than a Parts Store and we are looking for even more great talent to join our NAPA family! As a NAPA Counter Sales associate, you are looked at as the “face of the retail store” and the go-to person as soon as our customers enter our retail stores for all of their automotive needs. You don’t need to be able to tear and motor down and rebuild it (however, if you can, that’s awesome) – but we do need you to have a background and knowledge of automotive parts. A NAPA Counter Sales associate is a great opportunity whether you are looking to spend your career with us as a Parts Specialist, want to work full/part-time or you just want to get your foot in the door with us to explore other careers at some point – We welcome you! Responsibilities Provide auto parts answers and solutions for our retail and wholesale customers in person at the counter or over the phone. Use your parts knowledge to assist other NAPA team members and answer questions for customers. Provide outstanding customer care and interactions with everyone who comes into our NAPA Store. Bring customer focus and high energy to our fast-paced stores. Welcome retail customers into our retail stores and engage to provide a positive consumer experience. Use technology (computer), cash register, telephone, and paper catalog system. This is the right opportunity for you if you genuinely enjoy helping our retail and wholesale customers with their auto parts and service questions, have gained your parts experience by working the automotive industry or have gained your experience tinkering with/repairing cars & trucks through the year, and you are willing to learn all things automotive if you don’t have the background in automotive parts. You want to join a team where you can learn and grow your career – the opportunities are endless! What you’ll need Valid driver’s license. Previous experience in a parts store or automotive industry or at least a willingness to learn all things auto parts. High school diploma or GED. Technical or trade school courses or degree. Excellent verbal and written communication skills. Love fast-paced retail environments. Great listening skills and empathy for customers. Background and/or passion for automotive industry, heavy equipment, farm industry, diesel, marine, or dealership. Experience in a parts store, auction, retail store, auto body/collision. Knowledge of cataloging and/or inventory management systems, a plus. Entirely customer-centric (external/internal). ASE certifications. What’s in it for you Awesome people and brand. Competitive pay. Outstanding health benefits and 401(k). Stable company – Fortune 200 with a “family” feel. A culture of promotion from within, using your creativity, finding solutions/fixes, and where no two days or career paths are the same. Great training and ongoing development with support from multiple leaders/the team.
