  • Supporting daily operations as needed
  • Following safety protocols and meeting Chain of Responsibility (CoR) requirements

  • Solid knowledge of vehicle parts and cataloguing systems
  • Strong communication and time management skills
  • Good computer and inventory system skills
  • A customer-first mindset and proactive team attitude
  • Attention to detail and a willingness to learn
