Job description

Tired of Toxic Dealership Culture? Come Build a Real Career at Vanguard Auto Group.

Position: Automotive Accounting Specialist

Location: Vanguard Kia of Arlington

Compensation: Competitive Hourly + Exceptional Benefits Package

The Opportunity

Let’s cut straight to the chase. If you have deep franchise dealership experience, you know how chaotic the back office can get. At Vanguard Auto Group, we do things differently. We are a family-owned and operated group representing Kia, GMC, and Volkswagen, and we actually live by our commitment to "WOW" Our Customers, Our Team Members, Our Community, and Our Peers.

We are looking for a meticulous, driven Accounting Specialist who knows dealership operations inside and out, wants to skip the corporate red tape, and wants to work in an environment that genuinely respects work-life balance and flexible schedules.

What You Will Actually Do

You’ll be the engine behind our financial and inventory accuracy. Your core mission will include:

• Mastering AP: Process invoices and manage vendor relationships with absolute precision.

• Driving Inventory Control: Stock in new inventory and ensure every vehicle record is bulletproof.

• Managing Floor Plans: Track, reconcile, and navigate dealership financing transactions smoothly.

• Handling Wholesale: Post wholesale vehicle sales and documentation seamlessly.

• Team Collaboration: Bring your expertise to support the broader accounting team as we scale.

What You Bring to the Table

We aren't training on the basics here; we need someone who can hit the ground running:

• The Experience (Non-Negotiable): Proven Franchise Dealership Experience is required for consideration.

• The Tech Stack: Deep familiarity with automotive accounting software; bonus points if you know your way around Tekion.

• The Eye for Detail: Laser-focused accuracy in data entry, financial reporting, and processing.

• The Gear Shift: Exceptional multi-tasking skills to glide through a fast-paced environment without breaking a sweat.

Why Work With Us? (The Perks That Matter)

We know experienced dealership talent has options. Here is why our people stay and grow with us:

• Paid Weekly: Consistent, reliable earnings right when you need them.

• Employer-Paid Health Insurance: We take care of your medical coverage.

• Financial Security: 401(k) matching and paid life insurance for you and your family.

• Paid Holidays: Actual time off to enjoy life outside the dealership.

• Total Wellness: Dental and vision insurance options available.

• Exclusive Perks: Generous employee discounts on vehicles, parts, and service.
