Job description

Job Description

The Secondary Quality Control Spotter is a specialized field operations role focused on increasing company recovery performance by targeting overlooked, delayed, and high-probability repossession opportunities during both daytime and nighttime operational windows. This position supports overall company recovery goals by working aged accounts, previously located vehicles, employment locations, and LPR opportunities that may not be fully captured through standard recovery operations.

This role is designed for experienced recovery professionals who can work independently, manage multiple zones, and consistently produce recoveries through strategic fieldwork.

Production Standards

  • Average 7–10 vehicle recoveries/locations per week
  • Maintain 100,000+ LPR scans monthly
  • Demonstrate consistent productivity across assigned zones
  • Deliver strong follow-up results on previously worked accounts

Performance Standards

Successful candidates must demonstrate:

  • Strong self-management
  • High urgency and follow-through
  • Strategic route planning
  • Effective time management
  • Consistent communication with management
  • Ability to work independently in the field
  • Flexibility to operate during daytime or nighttime shifts as needed

Schedule & Availability

  • Full-time position
  • Both daytime and nighttime opportunities available based on operational demand
  • Flexible scheduling based on assigned market needs
  • Weekend availability may be required

Compensation

Base Pay

  • Starting salary: $40,000 annually

Incentive Pay

  • $30 commission per completed recovered vehicle

Expected Earnings

Based on production expectations, projected annual compensation is:

  • $50,000 – $60,000+ annually (salary + commission)

Top performers may exceed this range.

Ideal Candidate Profile

The right candidate is motivated by performance pay, understands how to create recoveries from missed opportunities, and takes ownership of results.

This is not an entry-level route position. This is a performance-based opportunity for an experienced operator who can think critically, stay productive, and deliver measurable results.
