IS THIS YOU?

You're a proven Service Manager with 3+ years of fixed ops leadership -- you own CSI, absorption, team development, and the daily rhythm of a well-run service department

You build teams that perform through clear standards, direct coaching, and a hospitality-first culture that guests feel from the moment they pull onto the drive

You're ready to lead the service department of a Mercedes-Benz store on Maui -- where the community is tight-knit, the guest relationships are lasting, and the standard matches the brand

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. That's why we've grown to 40+ rooftops across the West Coast, Alaska, and Hawaii while maintaining a culture built on one simple idea: do right by people, every time.

Mercedes-Benz of Maui serves a loyal, discerning island community where the service department is often the most meaningful and lasting relationship a guest has with the dealership. On Maui, guests know their Service Manager -- and the leader who runs this department with integrity, hospitality, and operational discipline builds something that compounds for years.
