About The Position

Over time, the role may expand to support workshop facilities, vehicles, equipment, and specialty projects located in both Wisconsin and Tennessee. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to help develop and standardize multiple private workshop operations while working on a diverse range of vehicles, equipment, and mechanical projects.
