We’re looking for a detail-driven, process-minded professional to join our team as a Centralized Recon & Arbitration (CRA) Manager. This is a high-impact role where you’ll safeguard margins, speed up reconditioning, and drive accountability across multiple stores.

What You’ll Do * ASR Review & Approval: Oversee all Additional Service Recommendations in CDK Service & Rapid Recon. Approve or deny work based on ROI, vehicle grade, and company standards. * Condition Report Verification & Arbitration: Compare auction reports against HoneyCar’s inspections, file arbitration claims, and recover losses from misrepresented vehicles. * Warranty Claim Liaison: Act as the main contact for Ethos warranty claims, ensuring fast documentation and resolution. * Communication & Training: Maintain clear channels with Recon, Inventory, Technicians, and Buyers; provide feedback and set consistent standards. * Reporting & Accountability: Deliver weekly reports on recon spend, arbitration outcomes, claim turnaround, and cycle times. What Success Looks Like * Average ASR approvals completed in under 15 minutes. * Reconditioning cycle time maintained at ≤5 days. * Recon spend controlled within ±10% of grade-based budgets. * Arbitration claims identified and filed on time — no missed windows. * Faster warranty resolutions, reinforcing HoneyCar’s commitment to customer trust. What We’re Looking For * Automotive experience in reconditioning, service, or inventory management. * Strong knowledge of auction operations, arbitration, and condition reports. * Proficiency with CDK Service and/or Rapid Recon (preferred). * Detail-oriented, analytical, and able to make quick ROI-driven decisions. * Excellent communicator with proven ability to manage cross-departmental workflows. * Must live in Virginia or within commuting distance to one of our dealerships (Charlottesville, Winchester, or Roanoke). Perks & Benefits * Competitive compensation package with performance-based incentives. * Hybrid/remote flexibility for work-life balance. * Healthcare, dental, vision, and 401(k). * Career growth in a fast-scaling automotive group. * A collaborative team culture where your decisions directly impact performance and profitability.
