What are fixed operations?

Fixed operations refer to the departments in an automotive dealership that provide services beyond vehicle sales, specifically the service, parts, and collision repair departments. These departments are called 'fixed' because they offer ongoing, non-variable revenue streams compared to vehicle sales, which can fluctuate. Fixed operations are crucial to a dealership's profitability, focusing on maintenance, repairs, and supplying parts for vehicles. Effective management of fixed operations helps ensure customer satisfaction and repeat business, making them an essential part of the dealership's long-term success.

What are the typical daily responsibilities of someone working in fixed operations?

In Fixed Operations, your daily responsibilities often revolve around managing the service, parts, and sometimes body shop departments of the dealership. You'll coordinate with service advisors, technicians, and parts personnel to ensure smooth workflow, efficient customer service, and accurate inventory management. Monitoring repair orders, handling customer concerns, and analyzing department performance metrics are also key tasks. Collaboration with sales and finance departments is common to align after-sales services with overall dealership goals.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in fixed operations?

To thrive in Fixed Operations, you need a strong background in automotive service management, inventory control, and customer service, often supported by relevant experience or certifications such as ASE. Familiarity with dealership management systems (DMS), parts catalog software, and service scheduling tools is typically required. Outstanding leadership, problem-solving abilities, and effective communication are essential soft skills for excelling in this role. These skills ensure efficient workflow, high customer satisfaction, and profitability in dealership service and parts departments.

What is the difference between Fixed Operations vs Service Advisor?

AspectFixed OperationsService Advisor
Primary RoleOversees service, parts, and repair departmentsActs as the liaison between customers and technicians
CredentialsOften requires automotive service certificationsCustomer service experience, sometimes automotive knowledge
Work EnvironmentService bays, parts department, repair shopsDealerships, customer service areas
Industry UsageUsed across automotive dealerships and repair centersCommonly employed in dealerships and service centers

Fixed Operations and Service Advisors both play vital roles in automotive service departments. Fixed Operations manages the overall service, parts, and repair functions, focusing on operations and efficiency. Service Advisors serve as the customer-facing link, explaining repairs and ensuring customer satisfaction. While their responsibilities differ, both roles are essential for a successful service department and often work closely together.

Job description

Are You Addicted to Fixing Broken Dealerships?

Coach / Fixed Operations Specialist โ€“ Automotive & Commercial Truck

Do you know how to walk into a dealership, spot the dysfunction, fix the problems, and turn fixed operations into a profit machine?

We are looking for a proven Coach / Fixed Operations Specialist who thrives on building accountability, improving execution, increasing profitability, and helping dealerships perform at a higher level. This role is for someone who understands the real-world demands of automotive and/or commercial truck fixed operations and knows how to create results in service, parts, and leadership performance.

If you have ever said:

  • โ€œThis dealership could be so much betterโ€

  • โ€œThey are managing symptoms instead of the real problemโ€

  • โ€œNo one is driving accountabilityโ€

  • โ€œThere is too much profit being left on the tableโ€

โ€ฆthen this role may be built for you.

What You Will Be Responsible For
  • Implementing a system/process in a dealershipโ€™s fixed operations, and driving performance and removing the true barriers to profitability

  • Coaching leaders in service, parts, and fixed ops on execution, accountability, and process discipline

  • Improving labor sales, gross profit, technician productivity, efficiency, staffing effectiveness, and customer retention

  • Helping dealerships eliminate drift, strengthen culture, and operate with greater consistency

  • Turning under-performing departments into more profitable, scale-able, and customer-focused operations

  • Serving as a trusted partner who can challenge leadership and help drive meaningful change

What We Need
  • Strong dealership fixed operations experience in automotive and/or commercial truck

  • Background as a Service Manager, Fixed Ops Director, Parts Manager, GM, Dealer Operator, or high-level consultant/coach

  • A track record of improving performance, profitability, and accountability

  • The ability to diagnose root causes, not just react to surface problems

  • Strong leadership presence with the ability to coach, influence, and challenge others

  • Willingness to travel and work directly with dealership teams onsite

Who You Are

You are not afraid of hard truths.
You know what great looks like.
You can identify gaps quickly.
You know how to get a team aligned, focused, and moving.
You care about customer experience, but you also understand that strong process and accountability are what drive sustainable profit.

This is not a sit-back-and-observe type of role.
This is for someone who wants to help fix dealerships and make them measurably better.

If you know how to improve fixed operations and create profit, we want to talk to you.

If youโ€™re tired of the grind and ready to coach the next generation of parts and service leaders, apply today. Be part of something biggerโ€”the Service Drive Revolution.

Apply now and become part of the Service Drive Revolution.
