Company Introduction:

We currently have 3 locations under the names of “University Auto and Tire” and “The Grease Pig Lube and Tune”. All three are in Fayetteville, Arkansas, with great reputations in our community. We bring local - honest - and professional automotive repair and maintenance to life here in NWA. We offer full employee benefits, paid time off, a family / team work environment, and more!

This opportunity is ideal for someone who has the drive and leadership ability to grow into managing an automotive service location. Previous automotive management experience is a plus, but it is not required.

Our Store Managers are responsible for developing their team, delivering an excellent customer experience, driving sales and operational performance, and maintaining high standards throughout the shop.
If you are competitive, dependable, coachable, and want the opportunity to take ownership of a business operation, we want to talk with you.
