$10k - $12k

KPA

Job Description

Job Description

Who We AreKPA helps automotive businesses keep their people safe, protect their operations, and stay ahead of regulatory change with our 3 Pillars for Complete Compliance: Software, Consulting, and Training. Since 1986, KPA has helped automotive businesses navigate the complexities of compliance.

Named as one of Built In Colorado’s Best Places to Work for seven years in a row, KPA is made up of talented individuals working together for the greater good. We’re here to help our clients build safe, thriving organizations, and we’re looking for people with a common goal to help us do it. 

Position Description :

 

Ready to take your dealership experience to the next level — without the retail hours?


KPA is looking for an experienced automotive F&I professional to join our growing team as an F&I Risk Management Consultant. This is an excellent opportunity for Finance Directors, Finance Managers, Finance Assistants, or dealership compliance professionals seeking a better work-life balance while staying connected to the automotive industry they know and love. 

Why KPA?
  • Remote/home-office based position.
  • Weekends and every major holiday off.
  • No more dealership bell-to-bell hours or 7-day workweeks.
  • Competitive salary + quarterly bonus opportunity.
  • Company recognized as one of Built In Colorado’s Best Places to Work 7 years running.
  • The industry's most trusted compliance partner for over 40 years. 
What you'll do:

As an F&I Consultant, you’ll serve as a trusted advisor to dealership clients by:

  • Conducting onsite F&I compliance audits and deal reviews.
  • Training dealership teams on state and federal compliance.
  • Building strong relationships with dealer partners.
  • Helping dealerships reduce risk and improve operational compliance.
  • Advising on Advertising, Sales, and Finance regulations.
What we're looking for:

  • 5+ years of automotive dealership experience in F&I, sales compliance, accounting, or dealership operations.
  • Strong understanding of dealership compliance and regulations.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working independently.
  • Comfortable with travel throughout the assigned territory.
  • Demonstrated integrity and ability to foster a strong compliance culture.
  • Strong organizational, time management, and multitasking abilities.
  • Ability to quickly learn and adapt to new technology platforms and mobile applications.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Outlook, PowerPoint, and mobile devices.
Location and Travel Expectations:
  • This role is based from your home office with travel throughout the territory. This position will be based out of Temecula, Escondido, Carlsbad or Lake Elsinore. 
  • Daily travel to dealerships throughout Orange, Inland & San Diego Counties areas. 
  • Overnight travel may average approximately 10 nights per quarter.
Physical Requirements:

Physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this job. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

  • Active driver’s license and insurance as required by law.
  • Reliable transportation and ability to drive between client visits, typically 4 days per week. Driving time per day varies according to geography and scheduling.
  • Ability to lift up to 20 pounds.
  • Ability to stand on feet a minimum of 6 hours per day.
  • Ability to sufficiently receive audio signals to proceed with caution around heavy machinery, vehicles and other warning noises to ensure safety.
  • Ability to perceive sounds at normal speaking levels, with or without correction, and the ability to receive detailed information through oral communication and to make discriminations in sound.
  • Ability to see, recognize, and respond to potentially dangerous situations
  • Ability to physically move in manners such as bending, crouching, reaching, and pushing/pulling items up to 20 pounds
  • Ability to stay overnight in a hotel a total multiple weeks per quarter and fly on an airplane domestically. 

In addition the base salary, this position is eligible for a quarterly bonus plan estimated at an additional $10k-12k annually.

Join a company where your dealership expertise is valued — while gaining the flexibility and balance that retail automotive often can’t provide.

Don’t meet every job requirement? At KPA, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace. Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply unless they meet every requirement. If you’re excited about the role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification, we still encourage you to apply! You might just be the right candidate for this or other roles.

Please note that we may use AI tools to assist in the initial screening of resumes to help identify qualified candidates more efficiently. All decisions are reviewed by a human recruiter, and no hiring determination is made solely by automated means. 

As a growing company KPA   values its employees by supporting them with a full benefits package including Medical, Dental, Vision, Flexible Spending Accounts, PTO, Paid and Floating Holidays, 401k with Company match and immediate vesting, Company-funded Life Insurance, Employee Assistance Programs, and No-cost Mental Health Benefits.

Please note: we may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.

KPA is committed to providing equal opportunity in all of our employment practices, including selection, hiring, promotion, transfer, and compensation, to all qualified applicants and employees without regard to race, religion, religious dress/grooming, color, ethnicity, sex (including sex stereotyping), sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression, national origin, ancestry, citizenship status, creed, uniform service member status, military or veteran status, marital status, pregnancy, breast-feeding and/or pregnancy-related conditions, age, protected medical condition, leave status, physical or mental disability, genetic characteristics, or any other legally-protected status in accordance with the requirements of all federal, state and local laws. In compliance with federal law, all persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and to complete the required employment eligibility verification document form upon hire.
