Pit boss. Coach. Crew Leader. The titles may be different, but they’re all synonymous with someone who leads a team of high-performance drivers in the auto industry, whether it’s Daytona, Indianapolis, or the world’s largest, most comprehensive wholesale vehicle marketplace – Manheim.
Manheim, part of the Cox Automotive family of businesses, is looking for a Crew Leader to coach our teams with winning strategies to move vehicles, employees, and customers safely around our multi-acre lots like champions.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Manheim’s massive auction lot is your playing field. Your driving teams – rookies and pros alike – will look to you for the second-to-second strategic decisions that will catapult us into the lead by safely moving thousands of vehicles for our auctions.

• Transport drivers, customers, and employees to locations as needed and on schedule.

• You’re a people person, and those people listen to and instinctively trust you. You’re a natural leader with a knack for coaching others. Enthusiastic? You bet! Not to mention supportive, knowledgeable, and goal oriented. To top it off, you’re a clear communicator.

• You’re looking for more than just a job; you want a career. A place where you can grow your skills and your income. A place with opportunities. That place is Manheim, a part of Cox Automotive.
