Manager in Training

Description

Drive & Shine is a premium carwash and car care center based out of South Bend, Indiana with over 20 current locations. We have premium automatic wash tunnels, quick serve lube centers, and self clean detail centers. We design, fabricate, install, and maintain out own equipment and facilities. We are the front runners for sustainability with eco-friendly biodegradable soaps and a state of the art reclaim unit that allows us to use less water than the average driveway carwash. We believe in giving back to the communities we serve. We are expanding into the Fort Wayne Market with 4 locations reserved and several more in the coming years. We are seeking a results oriented hands on leader that can drive the growth of a single location and potentially multiple sites. Most of our successful store leaders grow to over 100K in compensation by year 2!

Our first location is scheduled to open late summer. Immediate employment needs would require training in Mishawaka Indiana at our flagship store. Training can be up to 12 weeks and all travel expenses and meal expenses would be paid for along with an "opening bonus" to be paid upon completing training and opening the store.

For interested applicants, if travel is not feasible we would still love to hear from you and potential employment would be closer to the end of the summer when the local location opens.
