Metropolitan Ford Vehicle Operations Coordinator

Metropolitan Ford is now part of Walser Automotive Group — and we’re building our team!

This is an exciting time to join Metropolitan Ford as we begin our next chapter under the Walser umbrella. We’re bringing together the strength and history of Metropolitan Ford with the resources, career opportunities, and people-first culture of one of the Midwest’s leading automotive groups.

We’re looking for a Vehicle Operations Coordinator who likes staying active, keeping things organized, and being part of a team. You’ll play an important behind-the-scenes role in keeping our vehicle inventory moving, organized, and ready for our customers and sales team.

If you enjoy cars, working on your feet, and having a job where no two days look exactly the same, this could be a great opportunity to get your foot in the door and grow your career in automotive.

You’ll help keep Metropolitan Ford’s vehicle operations running smoothly from the moment a vehicle arrives on our lot through the moment it’s ready for delivery to a customer.

• Support the sales team with the preparation and delivery of sold vehicles

• Receive and stock newly arriving vehicles

• Organize, park, stage, and move vehicles throughout the dealership lot

• Coordinate vehicles going to the appropriate service center for safety inspections

• Help ensure vehicles are priced, stickered, inspected, and ready for sale

• Support vehicle inventory tracking and data entry within the dealership management system (DMS)

• Utilize dealership tools including TruVideo and Estimate Tool

• Monitor and maintain Key Track reporting and vehicle key organization

• Partner with the Inventory Manager on day-to-day inventory needs and special projects

• Help maintain a clean, organized, safe, and professional dealership lot

• Follow all dealership safety requirements, including required safety eyewear and appropriate hard-toed, slip-resistant footwear when working in service areas

• Take on additional projects and responsibilities as needed to support the team

• Uphold Walser’s Core Values: Do the Right Thing, Lead by Example, Display Positive Energy, and Be Open Minded

You don’t need years of automotive experience to make an impact here. We’re looking for someone who is dependable, organized, motivated, and ready to contribute.

• Must be at least 18 years of age

• Valid driver’s license with an acceptable driving record

• Comfortable driving and maneuvering a variety of vehicles

• Ability and willingness to work outdoors in varying weather conditions

• Strong organization and time-management skills

• Attention to detail and ability to keep multiple priorities moving

• A positive attitude and willingness to jump in where needed

• A team-first mindset and dependable work ethic
