We are changing the way people buy and service cars one dealership at a time. In business for over 30 years, PBS is the third largest DMS (Dealership Management System) provider to the North American retail automotive industry. Each month we welcome hundreds of new users to our software platform, and we need your help.

We are unique in the industry because we view our customers as business partners, technology innovators, and friends. Our software can run all aspects of an automotive dealership with sales, service, inventory management, and accounting modules.

And that's where you come into the picture. While specific roles are posted, PBS is always open to pivoting with quality people and adding to the team based on your skills and the needs of our customers. After you join the team, we will continue the process of moving you into new roles based on your talents, growth, and interests.

  • Ensure data integrity, accuracy, and security throughout the conversion process
  • Troubleshoot and resolve any data-related issues

Integration Management:

  • Establish and maintain integration with other third-party companies, such as CRM systems, DMS providers, and other software vendors
  • Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders to ensure seamless integration and functionality of PBS’s software with other systems

Other Duties:

  • Maintain regular communication with customers, internal teams, and other stakeholders to provide updates on project status, risks, and issues
  • Prepare and present project progress reports, metrics, and other documentation
  • Ability to organize and manage multiple tasks, timelines and resources simultaneously
  • Ability to prioritize tasks and manage time effectively to ensure deadlines are achieved
  • Ability to be adaptable and adjust plans and strategies to keep projects on track
  • Ability to work collaboratively with the project team to achieve goals
  • Ability to lead the project team to success by providing clear direction, motivation and support
  • Identify and solve problems that may arise during a project
  • Learn and develop an understanding of the PBS software
  • Achieve and maintain one silo certification
  • This role requires 50% travel to customer sites located in different regions, travel may be domestic or international depending on project requirements
  • Perform other duties and responsibilities as assigned

Qualifications:

  • 1-2 years’ experience in the automotive industry or dealership operations is required
  • 1-2 years’ experience in project management, preferably in software implementation or conversion projects is considered an asset
  • College diploma or bachelor’s degree in computer science, business administration, or a related field is considered an asset
  • Strong problem-solving skills
