What is fixed ops?

Fixed Ops, short for Fixed Operations, refers to the departments in a car dealership that handle service, parts, and collision repairs—essentially, all operations outside of vehicle sales. This includes the service department (where maintenance and repairs are performed), parts department (which manages inventory and sales of vehicle parts), and often the body shop. Fixed Ops are crucial for generating steady revenue and profit for dealerships since these services are needed regardless of vehicle sales trends.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as a fixed operations manager?

To thrive as a Fixed Operations Manager, you need strong knowledge of automotive service and parts operations, business management skills, and experience in dealership environments, often supported by relevant certifications or training. Familiarity with dealership management systems (DMS), inventory management software, and service scheduling tools is essential. Leadership, problem-solving, and customer service skills are crucial for motivating teams and ensuring client satisfaction. These competencies drive operational efficiency, profitability, and customer loyalty in automotive service departments.

What are common challenges faced by fixed ops professionals in automotive dealerships?

Fixed Ops professionals often face challenges such as balancing customer satisfaction with operational efficiency, managing parts inventory, and ensuring service departments meet revenue targets. They must coordinate between service advisors, technicians, and parts staff to streamline workflow and resolve issues quickly. Additionally, adapting to new technologies and changing manufacturer requirements can require ongoing training and flexibility. Strong communication and organizational skills are key to overcoming these challenges and delivering high-quality service.

Job description

Are You Addicted to Fixing Broken Dealerships?

Coach / Fixed Operations Specialist – 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:

  • “This dealership could be so much better”

  • “They are managing symptoms instead of the real problem”

  • “No one is driving accountability”

  • “There is too much profit being left on the table”

…then this role may be built for you.

What You Will Be Responsible For
  • Implementing a system/process in a dealership’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 you’re tired of the grind and ready to coach the next generation of parts and service leaders, apply today. Be part of something bigger—the Service Drive Revolution.

Apply now and become part of the Service Drive Revolution.
