Proudly serving over 630,000 customers, we've earned the Consumers Choice Award for more than 24 consecutive years.

Are You Our Next Service Manager?

We're on the hunt for someone who loves implementing proven processes and leading their people to success; they know that if their team wins then they win too. They think like a leader, act like a teammate, and leave no team member behind no matter how early or how late. They are collaborative, supportive and have a thoughtful approach to their communication style. They are confident in their leadership and coaching abilities, they love to learn something new every day, and they want to empower those around them. They have experience spending time on the road with their team but have found peace in completing their administrative duties from the office where they know the devil is in the details. While they don't necessarily have garage door experience, they may have a background in the trades or the construction business (an asset). Despite working in a fast-paced environment with changing priorities, they are still a reliable and helpful resource to their team and peers and treat every customer as a relationship and not a transaction handling escalations with care. They must always come with a positive attitude, have an ownership mentality, are ready to problem solve when needed, and join in our customer obsession.
