  • Drive revenue through strong execution of wash package and membership sales
  • Support site financial performance including labor management and inventory control
  • Maintain a clean, safe, and efficient operation including tunnel, vacuums, equipment, and chemicals
  • Open and close the site while ensuring procedures and cash handling are executed accurately
  • Load vehicles safely and efficiently into the wash tunnel
  • Hold team members accountable to performance standards and expectations
  • Assist with basic equipment maintenance and troubleshooting
  • Uphold company standards policies and culture at all times

Requirements

  • Self motivated leader who takes initiative and ownership
  • Comfortable being accountable for performance and results
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to coach and develop others
  • High level of energy and work ethic in a fast paced environment
  • Willingness to work flexible schedules including rotating weekends
  • Ability to travel between Upstate locations as needed
  • Previous car wash management or leadership experience preferred
  • Candidates without direct experience may be considered for Manager-in-Training

  • Competitive salary with monthly performance based bonus program
  • Healthcare stipend
  • Paid vacation and sick time
  • Free car washes
