APPRENTICE AUTO TECHNICIAN

Are you looking for a career and a home instead of just another job? Planet Subaru is seeking someone good with their hands who would like to get a start in a lucrative field with lots of growth opportunity. We will help you learn the skills necessary to complete light maintenance and repairs on vehicles, including oil changes and tire rotations.

No automotive repair experience is necessary, but you need an aptitude for doing mechanical things. Any vocational/technical school or shop experience is helpful but not required. We will train you if you're smart and eager to learn.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who doesn't want to work at low-wage job year after year. We will help you develop into a master technician through the years. It's also great for someone at a tire shop, small garage, or oil change facility who wants to move up to a franchised dealership.

The work week is four, ten-hour shifts, so you get three days off per week. You can work a fifth day and get overtime if you like. Your schedule will include many Saturdays, and the shop is closed Sundays. Benefits include health insurance, paid vacation, and partial 401K matching. We have a beautiful facility with an air-conditioned shop.

Planet Subaru is a very special dealership. We have very low turnover and very high quality of life. To learn more about our unique philosophy, visit planetsubaru.com. Planet is a great place to work. Selected from over 20,000 nationwide, Planet Subaru was twice named to the Automotive News Top 100 Best Dealerships to to Work For. And the Boston Globe selected Planet Subaru five times from thousands of companies in all industries for its Best Place To Work Award.

Planet Subaru has many women on its sales and service teams, so we encourage women and others traditionally excluded from auto industry opportunities to apply.

Please email your resume with a brief note about your interest in the position to dlathrop@planetsubaru.com.  We will respond to qualified applicants with a list of answers to frequently asked questions about the opportunity.

PURCHASE PARTNER--AUTO SALESPERSON

Planet Subaru offers you a unique opportunity to make the world a better place, one car sale at a time. Not just that, but in a positive and team-oriented environment. We offer extensive training and look for candidates WITHOUT any experience in car sales, so we can provide a pleasantly different and enjoyable experience for our customers. Our team members see their tenure at Planet as a career rather than just a job. We almost always promote from within. We have minimal turnover, and the longevity of our team members says a lot about the quality of life here.

COMPENSATION AND GUARANTEED TRAINING PAY

The work is interesting, fast-paced, and it rewards initiative and problem solving. Income is reliable and combines hourly compensation with a competitive commission and bonus structure. Income for salespeople ranges from $70,000-$120,000 per year and we maintain a much smaller sales team compared to typical dealerships, so there's plenty of opportunity for everyone. We have so much confidence that you will succeed with us that we guarantee income per week for the first three months.

SCHEDULE

The flexible schedule is just a little more than 40 hours per week, which is many fewer than the typical dealership. You'll work just five days per week, with every Sunday off, plus the same weekday off. You'll work most Saturdays because that's our busiest day. And the latest we close (Monday through Thursday) is at 7pm, so if you're scheduled to close that night you can still make it home in time for dinner.

Planet is great place to work, and you don't have to take our word for it. Selected from over 20,000 nationwide, Planet was named to the Automotive News "Top 100 Best Dealerships to Work For" twice.

SERVICE ADVISOR

3 Days a Week | 4 Days Off Every Week

A Very Rare Opportunity

How does working full-time in just three days per week sound?

At Planet Subaru, our Service Advisors work approximately 39 hours over three days, giving you four days off every week. This is not a typo.

We’re looking for a high-level, customer-service-driven professional — a true rock star — to join our award-winning team.

The Schedule

Full-time: ~39 hours per week over 3 days
Closed Sundays
Rotating every 5 weeks:

5 Weeks: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday (7:00am–8:00pm)
5 Weeks: Thursday, Friday, Saturday (7:00am–8:00pm)

You work hard when you're here — and then you truly unplug.

Compensation

• Reliable weekly pay plus performance bonuses
• Guaranteed minimum pay while training and ramping up
• Most new Planet Subaru advisors exceed the guarantee

This is a career-level income opportunity, not an entry-level service counter job.

The Role

As a Service Advisor, you are the primary point of contact for customers bringing their vehicle in for service.

You will:

• Greet customers and build immediate rapport
• Write repair orders and recommend services
• Communicate clearly and proactively throughout the day
• Secure approvals for additional work when needed
• Solve problems and handle the occasional tough situation with professionalism

This is a fast-paced, high-energy role. Organization and communication are everything.

Most customers are understanding, as long as you are proactive, friendly, and transparent.

We give you real authority to resolve issues. You are not just a messenger, you are empowered to take care of people.

Who Thrives Here

We are not looking for someone who simply “provides service.” We are looking for someone who delivers exceptional customer care.

The right person:

• Takes pride in creating an outstanding customer experience
• Communicates clearly, proactively, and professionally
• Stays calm and solution-focused, even with a frustrated customer
• Is highly organized and thrives in a fast-paced environment
• Presents themselves in a polished, professional manner
• Wants a career, not just a job

Our best advisors don’t just manage repair orders — they build lasting customer relationships.

Automotive experience is helpful but not required. We will train the right person with the right mindset.

You must have a good driving record, as you will occasionally move customer and company vehicles.

Growth & Stability

We promote almost exclusively from within.

We have significantly lower turnover than the industry average. The longevity of our team says a lot about the quality of life here.

If you're ambitious, this role can lead to significant long-term growth.
