About the Role

As an EV Service Advisor on our Reconditioning Operations team, you’ll own the repair decisions that get Ever’s EV inventory ready for sale.

Then you’ll keep every car moving until it’s ready for sale. It’s a role for someone with service advising or recon experience who makes fast, sound decisions, manages vendors well, and wants direct ownership over the margins and speed of a fast-growing business.
