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.

Chris Collins, Inc.

Antioch, TN • On-site

Contractor

Job description

Ready to Break Free from the Grind of the Dealership World?
You've built a top-performing service department.
You know how to drive NPS/CSI, Profitability and building a team.
But now you're asking... "What's next?"
If you've ever dreamed of taking your talent nationwide-helping other service managers and advisors reach the heights you've already achieved-this is your shot!
We're Chris Collins Inc., the force behind the Service Drive Revolution, and we're looking for elite service professionals to join our team of traveling performance coaches.
What You'll Do
As a Commercial Truck Fixed Operations Coach, you'll partner with owners, general managers, parts and service leadership, and front-line staff to:
  • Audit operations and identify profit leaks
  • Train advisors in real-world selling strategies
  • Coach managers in leadership, accountability, KPI mastery, and execution
  • Help teams transform not just numbers-but culture

You'll be on-site with dealerships across the US and Canada, delivering hands-on coaching and tactical implementation. It's not consulting from a PowerPoint-it's in-the-trenches transformation. Note: There is a component of coaching that is a virtual coaching plus you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with dealerships in person.
This Role Is Not for Everyone.
Before you apply, understand this:
You will travel- up to 3 weeks per month
You must thrive in unfamiliar environments
You must be a self-starter who can command a room, earn trust, and drive change fast
You cannot rely on theory-you must bring real-world, documented service management success
No prior coaching experience needed-just a strong track record and a willingness to coach
You Might Be a Fit If You Have:
  • 5+ years of being a high-performing Service Manager or Fixed Ops Director in heavy/commercial truck operations.
  • A proven track record driving customer satisfaction (NPS/CSI), profitability, and developing high-functioning teams.
  • A self-starter who thrives in varied dealership environments-adept at earning trust and commanding attention.
  • Passionate about teaching and mentoring: you've mastered the real-world systems under pressure.
  • Excellent communication skills; comfortable leading training sessions and working with all personalities.
  • Available and eager for frequent travel (up to 3 weeks per month U.S. & Canada).
  • Bonus if you have public speaking or training experience, multi-rooftop leadership, and a hands-on mindset for fixing broken processes.

Why Join Our Team & Thrive With Us?
We're not just building better parts & service departments-we're building a movement.
Our coaches enjoy:
  • Partnering with a respected leader in automotive coaching and fixed ops growth
  • Receive training in our proprietary service systems and tools
  • Collaborate with a team of high performers who value autonomy, integrity, and results
  • Make a tangible difference in the lives of customers and fixed operation professionals, and drive profitability of dealerships

Bonus Points If You Have:
  • Public speaking or training experience
  • Experience managing multiple locations or large-volume stores
  • A "roll-up-your-sleeves" attitude with a passion for fixing broken processes

Ready to Make a Bigger Impact?
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.
