Description

Wilsonville, OR | Mercedes-Benz | DMV clerk | Title | Registration | Vehicle title | Dealership DMV | Multi-store | Oregon | Administrative | Detail-oriented | Pacific Northwest | Portland metro | Veterans encouraged to apply | $17 - $22/hr

IS THIS YOU?

• You're accurate, organized, and deadline-conscious -- DMV and title work has real consequences when it's done wrong, and you're the kind of person who catches the error before it leaves your desk rather than after it becomes a problem
• You're looking for a stable, detail-driven administrative role at a well-run Portland metro Mercedes-Benz store where your accuracy and consistency are a genuine operational contribution every day

WHO WE ARE

Mercedes-Benz of Wilsonville is part of Swickard Auto Group, a hospitality company in the retail automotive space built on one idea -- be the favorite of our guests, our employees, and our manufacturing partners. We operate 40+ dealerships across the West Coast, Alaska, and Hawaii, and whether you're in Wilsonville or Anchorage, the standard is the same. Do right by people, every time.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Process vehicle title and registration applications accurately and on time -- ensuring all required documentation is complete and submitted to the Oregon DMV within required timeframes
• Prepare and review deal paperwork for title and registration accuracy -- verifying odometer disclosures, lien documentation, trade-in titles, and buyer information before submission
• Track pending title and registration transactions -- following up on outstanding titles, lien releases, out-of-state transfers, and documentation gaps to prevent aging or penalty situations
• Coordinate with the finance office and sales team on deal documentation requirements -- flagging missing or incorrect paperwork early so it doesn't delay registration processing
• Process lien releases, duplicate title requests, and title corrections as needed
• Maintain accurate records of all title and registration transactions in the DMS
• Communicate proactively with the DMV Manager on any transactions at risk of delay, penalty, or compliance concern

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Prior dealership DMV, title, or registration experience preferred -- Oregon DMV familiarity a meaningful advantage
• Strong attention to detail -- title and registration errors create real compliance and guest experience problems; accuracy on every transaction is the baseline expectation
• Deadline-conscious and organized -- you track your pending work, you follow up without being asked, and nothing ages on your desk without a reason
• Clear communicator -- you flag documentation problems early and coordinate with the finance office and sales team without creating friction
• Comfortable with dealership DMS platforms or quick to learn them
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office -- Word, Excel, and Outlook
• Valid driver's license with a clean driving record

WHAT WE OFFER

• $17 - $22/hr
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Life insurance and supplemental coverage options
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• A stable, detail-driven role at one of Oregon's most recognized Mercedes-Benz stores
• Employee vehicle purchase and service discounts
