WHO WE ARE

Swickard Auto Group is a hospitality company that happens to sell and service cars. We believe the best guest experiences start with the best employee experiences.

• Accurate and detail-oriented - parts transactions need to be right the first time

• Comfortable with parts lookup systems and DMS platforms - or quick to learn them

• Able to manage multiple requests simultaneously in a fast-paced service environment

• Reliable, organized, and self-directed - you take ownership of your counter
