Nixon Automotive Ltd. is not your average shop — we’re a specialty BMW, MINI, and Rolls-Royce repair centre built on precision, professionalism, and a passion for doing things right. We're growing, and we’re looking for a leader who brings high standards, structure, and a keen eye for detail to every aspect of the job.
This is a high-impact position for someone who thrives on organization, clear communication, and team leadership — and who takes pride in creating a smooth, well-run operation from front counter to back shop.
