Swickard Auto Group is a hospitality company that happens to sell and service cars. We believe the best guest experiences start with the best employee experiences. That's why we've grown to 40+ rooftops across the West Coast, Alaska, and Hawaii while maintaining a culture built on one simple idea: do right by people, every time.

At Chevrolet of Thousand Oaks, we believe the best brand advocates don't always come from automotive. They come from anywhere great people are taught to connect with guests, represent a product with confidence, and follow through on every interaction. That's exactly what a Brand Specialist does here.

• Welcome guests with genuine warmth and curiosity -- making every interaction feel personal and unhurried

• Guide guests through the Chevrolet lineup with confidence -- connecting the right vehicle to each guest's lifestyle, needs, and budget

• Present and demonstrate vehicles in a way that brings features to life rather than reciting a spec sheet

• Build and maintain a guest pipeline through consistent follow-up and disciplined CRM use

• Collaborate with finance and management to deliver a transparent, seamless purchase experience

• Meet and exceed monthly targets while maintaining strong guest satisfaction scores

• Represent the Chevrolet brand and Swickard's hospitality standards in every conversation
