  • Build strong working relationships with dealership Service Departments and Fixed Operations teams.
  • Understand customer needs and help determine how SmartVMA can best support their Service Department.
  • Troubleshoot questions and help customers resolve issues.
  • Work with the Sales Representative to ensure customers receive a high level of support throughout the relationship.
  • Travel to automotive dealerships throughout Canada and occasionally the United States.
