Customer Service Receptionist

Job Description

Job Description

Precision Auto is a family-owned and operated automotive service center in Germantown, Maryland. For more than 44 years, we have built our reputation not only on taking care of vehicles, but on taking exceptional care of the people who drive them.

We believe great customer experiences begin with great employees. We work hard to create an environment where team members are respected, supported, held to high standards, and given the opportunity to succeed.

We are looking for a Front Desk Receptionist who can help us deliver the welcoming, organized, and professional experience our customers expect.

Automotive experience is not required. In fact, experience in hospitality, hotels, restaurants, medical or professional offices, concierge services, or other customer-focused environments can be an excellent fit for this position.

The Person We're Looking For:

You genuinely enjoy helping people.

You are warm and welcoming, but also professional and dependable. You communicate clearly, pay attention to details, and take pride in making things run smoothly.

You notice when someone needs assistance without waiting to be asked. When the phone rings, a customer walks through the door, an appointment needs to be coordinated, or transportation arrangements change, you respond calmly and professionally.

You understand that small details matter.

Because you will often be one of the first people our customers interact with, you will play an important role in representing Precision Auto and creating the experience customers remember.

What You'll Do

You'll help coordinate the customer's experience throughout their visit.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Warmly greeting customers and helping them feel welcome
• Answering incoming telephone calls and customer emails professionally
• Responding to customer questions and directing requests appropriately
• Scheduling and confirming service appointments
• Helping accommodate customers' individual transportation and scheduling needs
• Coordinating rental vehicle reservations
• Preparing and processing rental vehicle agreements
• Coordinating customer shuttle transportation, including pickups, drop-offs, and vehicle deliveries
• Following up with customers after service
• Maintaining accurate customer and appointment information
• Communicating with other members of the Precision Auto team to keep customers informed and their visits running smoothly
• Identifying opportunities to make a customer's experience easier or more enjoyable

What Success Looks Like

The right person for this position is:

• Friendly, positive, and comfortable interacting with many different personalities
• Really likes being the first person the customer sees
• Dependable and punctual
• Highly organized and attentive to details
• Comfortable handling multiple responsibilities at once
• An excellent verbal and written communicator
• Comfortable speaking professionally on the telephone
• Able to remain calm when schedules change or the business becomes busy
• Proactive rather than waiting to be told what needs attention
• Comfortable learning new systems and processes
• Someone who takes pride in their appearance and maintaining a professional workplace
• A team player who is willing to help wherever needed

Experience Required:

• High school diploma or equivalent
• Valid driver's license
• Reliable ability to commute to Germantown, Maryland
• Strong customer-service and communication skills

Especially valuable:

Previous experience in hospitality, hotels, restaurants, concierge services, medical/dental offices, professional offices, banking, retail customer service, or another high-touch customer-service environment.

Automotive experience is welcome, but not required.

Schedule:

Monday–Friday, 7:40 AM–5:30 PM
45 minute lunch break
No weekends

This is a full-time, in-person position at our Germantown, Maryland location.

Compensation & Benefits:

Starting at $24.00 per hour, with overtime pay, weekly paycheck by direct deposit every Friday.

Benefits include:

• Health insurance
• Paid personal time off
• Paid holidays
• Paid training
• 401(k) retirement plan
• 4% company 401(k) match
• On-the-job training
• Smoke-free workplace

Why Precision Auto?

We're a single-location, family-owned company. That means our reputation is personal to us.

We want customers to feel that difference when they call us, when they walk through our doors, and throughout their entire experience with our team.

We're looking for someone who wants to be part of creating that experience—not simply someone looking for their next job.

If you're someone who takes pride in helping people, appreciates high standards, enjoys being part of a team, and believes the details of customer service matter, we'd like to hear from you.
