Job Description

 

Preview

High-volume, family-owned Toyota dealership in Wood-Ridge, NJ seeking an experienced Shop Foreman to lead technician productivity, diagnostics, and development in a modern service operation.

About the Dealership

We are a family-owned Toyota dealership located in Wood-Ridge, NJ, operating a high-volume service department with approximately 1,500 customer-pay repair orders per month, plus warranty work. We are expanding into a new, state-of-the-art service facility and investing heavily in people, process, and technology.

 

Our shop is staffed with factory-trained and certified technicians, and we are committed to raising efficiency, diagnostic accuracy, and overall technician performance.

 

Position Overview

 

The Shop Foreman / Technical Lead role is designed for an experienced, senior-level technician who is ready to move into a leadership position and focus on guiding, mentoring, and improving the performance of the entire shop.

 

This role is not a full-time wrench-turning position. While hands-on diagnostic assistance may be required when needed, the primary focus is on technical leadership, productivity, accountability, and technician development.

 

Key Responsibilities

 

Technical Leadership & Diagnostics

  • Serve as the top technical resource for complex diagnostic concerns
  • Assist technicians with advanced diagnostic strategy and problem-solving
  • Ensure all repairs meet Toyota factory standards and quality expectations

 

Productivity & Efficiency

  • Monitor technician productivity, efficiency, and workflow
  • Identify opportunities to improve shop throughput and utilization
  • Work with service management to support fair dispatching and job flow

 

 

 

Training, Mentorship & Certification

 

  • Mentor and coach technicians to improve skill level and confidence
  • Support ASE and Toyota certification advancement
  • Help elevate technicians toward expert-level capability

 

Accountability & Quality Control

  • Hold technicians accountable for proper diagnostic processes and repair quality
  • Review comebacks and repeat repairs; implement corrective coaching
  • Promote professionalism, consistency, and pride in workmanship

 

Who This Role Is For

  • Senior or Master-level technicians ready to step into leadership
  • Experienced technicians who want to reduce physical wrench-turning
  • Professionals who enjoy teaching, coaching, and improving others
  • Leaders who command respect through knowledge, not ego

 

Qualifications & Experience

  • Extensive automotive technician experience (Toyota experience strongly preferred)
  • Toyota Master Certification strongly preferred
  • ASE Master Certification preferred
  • Advanced diagnostic expertise
  • Proven ability to mentor, coach, and influence other technicians
  • Strong communication and leadership skills

 

Compensation & Opportunity

  • Competitive annual compensation of approximately $90,000–$130,000+, based on experience, certifications, and leadership impact
  • Compensation structure may include salary or salary + performance incentives
  • Stable, full-time leadership role
  • Paid training and continued education
  • Opportunity to directly impact shop performance, technician growth, and culture

 

(Compensation will be aligned with experience and the scope of leadership responsibility.)

 

Why Join Us

  • Family-owned dealership with hands-on leadership
  • Brand-new, modern service facility
  • High-volume Toyota service department
  • Strong commitment to technician training and advancement
  • Opportunity to shape shop culture, performance, and long-term success

Experienced technicians interested in transitioning into a leadership role focused on developing people and improving shop performance are encouraged to apply.
