Full Job Description

High-Volume Used Car Dealership | Owensboro, KY

Vantacar is looking for an experienced Automotive Detail & Reconditioning Professional with strong paint-correction skills and an exceptional eye for detail.

This is a rare opportunity for someone who takes pride in transforming used vehicles and wants to become an important part of a growing dealership operation.

This is NOT a basic car-washing position.

We need someone who understands professional automotive detailing, paint correction, interior restoration, vehicle reconditioning, quality control, and—just as importantly—how to work quickly and efficiently in a high-volume dealership environment.

PAINT CORRECTION & EXTERIOR SKILLS

The right candidate should be experienced with:

Rotary and dual-action (DA) polishers
Cutting, buffing, polishing, and finishing
Heavy and light compounds
Cutting, polishing, and finishing pads
Identifying swirl marks, oxidation, scratches, water spots, and other paint defects
One-step and multi-step paint correction
Clay bars and synthetic decontamination products
Proper masking before correction
Wet sanding and spot correction when appropriate
Paint-depth gauges and understanding when correction may be unsafe
Headlight restoration
Chrome, wheel, and exterior trim restoration
Restoring faded exterior plastics and trim
Final paint inspection using proper lighting

A professional must understand the difference between improving a vehicle and damaging one.

Knowing when NOT to aggressively cut, sand, buff, or apply heat is just as important as knowing how to do it.

INTERIOR RECONDITIONING

Candidate should be comfortable using professional equipment and techniques including:

Heated carpet extractors
Steam cleaners
Commercial wet/dry vacuums
Air compressors
Tornador/compressed-air cleaning tools
Drill brushes
Interior detailing brushes and specialty tools
Carpet and upholstery extraction
Carpet and fabric dye/color restoration
Deep stain removal
Pet-hair removal
Odor treatment
Leather and vinyl cleaning/conditioning
Interior plastic and trim restoration
Cleaning difficult cracks, seams, vents, consoles, and hard-to-reach areas

We expect the small areas that customers notice to be handled—not ignored.

TOOLS & EQUIPMENT KNOWLEDGE

A qualified applicant should already be familiar with professional detailing equipment such as:

Paint Equipment:
DA polishers Rotary buffers Mini polishers Compounds Polishes Cutting/finishing pads Paint-depth gauges Inspection lights Sanding equipment

Cleaning Equipment:
Commercial pressure washers Foam cannons Steam cleaners Heated extractors Shop vacuums Air compressors Tornador-style tools Drill brushes

Restoration Equipment:
Heat guns Headlight restoration equipment Carpet/fabric dye equipment Plastic/trim restoration products Interior repair and specialty detailing tools

You don't have to know every product or technique we use.

You DO have to be willing to learn.

DETAIL CHECKLIST & QUALITY-CONTROL PROCESS

Every vehicle will have a Detail/Reconditioning Checklist.

The detailer is responsible for working through the checklist as the vehicle is being completed and marking each required item as the work is performed.

This is an important part of the position.

The checklist helps us:

Track what has and has not been completed
Maintain consistent quality
Prevent small items from being overlooked
Communicate between detailing, management, and sales
Identify additional reconditioning needs
Prioritize vehicles with upcoming customer appointments
Verify that a vehicle is truly ready for photography, advertising, or delivery

Do not simply check boxes at the end of the job.

The checklist should be used as part of the actual reconditioning process.

When you sign off on a vehicle, you're putting your name behind the quality of that vehicle.

EFFICIENCY MATTERS

We are a high-volume used-car dealership.

We aren't looking for someone who spends eight hours making one average vehicle perfect when it could have been properly completed in three.

At the same time, we don't want someone rushing through vehicles and leaving work unfinished.

The right person understands:

QUALITY + SPEED + CONSISTENCY = PROFESSIONAL RECONDITIONING

You should know how to:

Organize your work before starting
Determine what each vehicle actually needs
Select the correct tools and chemicals
Work efficiently from one stage to the next
Avoid doing the same work twice
Keep tools and supplies organized
Maintain a clean work area
Communicate when additional work is required
Prioritize vehicles based on dealership needs

WORK DIRECTLY WITH OUR SALES TEAM

Not every vehicle requires the same level of work.

You will communicate with our sales team and management to understand the priority and purpose of each vehicle.

At times, a salesperson may have a customer coming to see a vehicle and need a quick professional cleanup before the appointment.

Other vehicles may require a:

FULL TEARDOWN → DEEP CLEAN → INTERIOR RESTORATION → PAINT CORRECTION → FINAL DETAIL → QUALITY CHECK → PHOTOS → FRONTLINE

You need to understand the difference and adjust your workflow accordingly.

WE WANT SOMEONE WHO CAN TEACH — AND BE TAUGHT

Experience is important, but attitude matters too.

We want someone who can eventually help teach and coach other detailers, demonstrate proper techniques, establish efficient processes, and maintain our quality standards.

At the same time, you must be teachable and coachable yourself.

There is always another product, technique, tool, or trick of the trade to learn.

We want someone who can say:

“I know what I'm doing—but I'm always willing to learn a better way.”

THE PERSON WE'RE LOOKING FOR

You should be:

Dependable
Detail-oriented
Efficient
Organized
Self-motivated
Coachable
Capable of coaching others
Comfortable being held accountable
Able to follow a written process
Able to complete and sign off on detail checklists
Proud of your finished work
Able to recognize problems without waiting for someone else to point them out

Most importantly, you need an eye for details.

If you walk past a vehicle and immediately notice the dirty door jamb, faded trim, compound residue, missed carpet stain, cloudy headlight, swirl marks, dirty seat track, or fingerprints on the glass—

that's the type of person we're looking for.

THIS IS A RARE OPPORTUNITY

If you have professional automotive detailing and paint-correction experience and want a position where your skills will actually be noticed and valued, we want to hear from you.

Serious applicants only.

We will only respond to applicants who EMAIL or CALL one of the points of contact below.
