Parts Advisors are responsible for ordering, selling, and managing stock control on a wide range of vehicle parts and accessories. Duties may vary from employer to employer but will typically include:

• Advising customers on how to solve a problem with their vehicle.
• Taking orders from customers both face to face and over the phone.
• Maintaining an ordered stock room and finding parts from stock.
• Raising invoices for parts sold.
• Liaising with other members of staff.
• Working alongside on-site Service Technicians to ensure they have the parts needed to complete their daily work.

Customers may include members of the public, service departments of retailers, and garages.

Please note, the Parts Advisor role varies slightly by employer based upon the specific needs within the location.

As a central point of contact for both of our internal and external customers you will need to have excellent communication skills. You should be IT literate (although full training will be provided) and be able to demonstrate attention to detail in the way you work.
