RV Parts Associate & Walkthrough Specialist

At our core, we believe that outdoor adventures create lifelong memories, bring families closer, and inspire a life lived outside the box.

We are looking for someone who shares our passion for the open road and believes that every customer deserves complete confidence when heading out on their first trip. As an RV Orientation Specialist, your primary purpose is to empower our customers: walking them step-by-step through their new unit, educating them on how everything works, and outfitting their rig with the exact gear they need to make every trip seamless, safe, and unforgettable.

If you thrive on building genuine connections, teaching others, and helping people realize their travel dreams, you’ll find a fulfilling home here.

About Our Dealership:

Bretz RV & Marine, a family-owned beacon for outdoor enthusiasts, began its journey in Missoula, Montana, in 1967. Founders Frank and Vi Bretz, initially involved in a service station and U-Haul rentals, ventured into the world of outdoor adventures with their foray into selling and renting travel trailers. This marked the beginning of a legacy centered around the great outdoors.

Today, Bretz RV & Marine is delighted to bring this spirit to Washington's Spokane and Liberty Lake areas. Here, amidst the region's natural splendor and vibrant community spirit, we align perfectly with our exploration and family adventure ethos.

Liberty Lake, nestled near the Idaho border, offers an idyllic backdrop for outdoor activities, with its picturesque lake, scenic parks, and numerous hiking trails. The community thrives on adventure and the natural beauty of Washington's landscapes. Spokane, the cultural hub nearby, complements this with its rich history, bustling arts scene, and the famed Spokane River running through the city. These locales resonate with the very essence of Bretz RV & Marine - a call to explore, enjoy, and cherish the great outdoors.

From our origins in Montana to our latest home in Washington, Bretz RV & Marine has grown significantly. Our team embodies our dedication to providing excellent services and fostering a passion for adventure. We specialize in helping both seasoned explorers and first-time adventurers find the perfect gear for their journeys.
