Role Overview As an Associate Performance Manager reporting to the SVP, Chief Customer Officer, you support and progressively own post-sale performance, adoption, and retention outcomes for a portfolio of dealership groups. This is not a relationship-management role. It is an outcome-driven operating role focused on improving how dealers use the platform and how effectively they execute against it. You are accountable for driving measurable business improvement through disciplined operating cadence, clear expectations, and consistent methodology — even in environments with imperfect attribution and uneven dealer execution. Success in this role is measured by sustained customer retention, improving performance indicators, and demonstrated readiness to take on expanded ownership as a full Performance Manager.

Bachelor’s Degree or work equivalent experience preferred
Proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets required; experience with BI tools or SQL is a plus.
Demonstrated ability to manage multiple accounts using structured processes and consistent operating cadence.
Proven ability to influence behavior changes using data, logic, and clear expectations — not relationship leverage.
High technical aptitude: able to quickly master complex platforms and translate insights into simple, actionable guidance.

Prepare and participate in disciplined, data-led business reviews with dealer leadership, translating Lotlinx performance into clear insights, tradeoffs, and next actions.
Drive adoption and standardization across all rooftops within a group, including underperforming or resistant stores.
