Service Advisor / Service Writer – Clearwater, FL

Clearwater Ice Cold Air ® Complete Auto Repair is looking for an experienced Service Advisor / Service Writer to join its growing team.

This is a customer-facing sales and service role for someone who knows how to earn trust, communicate vehicle needs clearly, and help customers make confident repair decisions. You will be responsible for more than preparing estimates—you will build lasting customer relationships, follow up on recommended work, and help keep the shop productive and profitable.

Compensation

  • Base salary: $50,000–$55,000 per year
  • Performance bonus potential: approximately $15,000–$30,000 per year
  • Total earning potential: $65,000–$85,000 per year
What You’ll Do

  • Greet customers, understand their concerns, and provide an exceptional service experience from check-in through vehicle pickup
  • Clearly explain inspection findings, maintenance needs, and repair recommendations in customer-friendly language
  • Confidently present repair recommendations typically ranging from $2,000 to $4,000 while maintaining a consultative, no-pressure approach
  • Prepare accurate estimates and obtain customer approvals
  • Proactively follow up on declined estimates and previously recommended maintenance or repairs
  • Maintain communication with customers throughout the repair process, including updates on timing, costs, and additional findings
  • Coordinate with technicians to ensure work is clearly assigned, authorized, and moving efficiently through the shop
  • Help keep technicians productive by reducing delays, securing approvals promptly, and ensuring parts and repair information are complete
  • Build repeat business and referrals through honest recommendations, follow-through, and outstanding customer care
What We’re Looking For

  • Prior experience as an automotive service advisor, service writer, or automotive sales professional
  • Proven ability to present and sell recommended automotive repairs and maintenance
  • Confidence discussing larger repair recommendations and helping customers understand the value, urgency, and safety considerations
  • Strong follow-up habits and the ability to turn declined work into future appointments
  • Excellent communication, relationship-building, and customer-service skills
  • Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable working in a fast-paced shop environment
  • A team-first mindset and strong ability to communicate with technicians and management
  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
You’ll Be Successful Here If You

  • Enjoy talking with people and building trust quickly
  • See yourself as a trusted advisor—not just an estimator
  • Are motivated by performance-based earnings
  • Know how to balance customer needs, ethical sales, and shop productivity
  • Take ownership of every customer from first call through completed repair
If you are an experienced service advisor who wants to be rewarded for strong customer service, consistent follow-up, and sales performance, we’d like to hear from you.

U.S. Equal Opportunity Employment Information (Completion is voluntary)

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.

You are being given the opportunity to provide the following information in order to help us comply with federal and state Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action record keeping, reporting, and other legal requirements.

Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

Form CC-305

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.
