Ready to take the next step in your career?

Warrnambool Toyota is looking for an ambitious, commercially minded professional who is ready to step beyond the traditional customer service role and take ownership of a high-performing Service Department.

This is an opportunity for someone who wants more responsibility, more influence and a genuine pathway to career progression within the automotive industry.

As Senior Service Advisor, you will play a key role in driving the performance of the Service Department — balancing customer experience, workshop efficiency and team performance.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Working closely with the Fixed Operations Manager, you'll take an active role in coordinating the day-to-day performance of the service department team.

You'll be responsible for

- Customer relationships from booking through to vehicle delivery
- Coordinating and scheduling workshop workloads to maximise productivity and efficiency
- Positively impacting workshop capacity, open repair orders and work-in-progress

- Handling escalated customer concerns and delivering exceptional outcomes
- Overseeing warranty processes and ensuring manufacturer requirements are met
- Maintaining high standards of quality, safety and customer satisfaction
- Contributing to the achievement of Toyota quality standards

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR? We're interested in the person, not just the resume.





You may already have automotive experience as a Service Advisor, Workshop Controller or similar.

Alternatively, you may be a strong business professional, operations coordinator, team leader or customer-focused manager who has the commercial mindset, confidence and ambition to transition into an exciting automotive role.

We're looking for someone who:

- Can confidently lead, influence and motivate a team
- Is organised, proactive and comfortable managing competing priorities
- Enjoys working with targets, KPIs and measurable results
- Has strong problem-solving and decision-making skills
- Takes ownership and isn't afraid to make things happen
- Wants to develop their leadership and operational management skills
- Is ambitious and genuinely looking to progress their career

Automotive experience is advantageous, but attitude, leadership potential and commercial capability are equally important. Warrnambool Toyota promotes a culture focused workplace, offering flexibility and a great work/life balance. This is a great opportunity to cement your career within a supportive and committed team. Continual training provided both in dealership and external at Toyota's Centre of Excellence Training Institute.
