Job Description
Job Description
It seems the job title Inspector can cover everything from investigating crime at Scotland Yard to confirming Fruit of the Looms is ready for wearing. You'll be happy to know this Inspector job doesn't require either of those duties. Instead, its a cool gig inspecting incoming vehicles for safety and quality before Manheim (part of the Cox family of businesses) turns them around for auction. So, if you've got an eye for all that's right and wrong with everything on wheels, here's the deal.
What You'll Do
You're the subtle studier of scratches, the one who dusts for dents. But it's about more than body damage. When auctioning a vehicle, everything from the A/C to the engine must be humming nicely before sale day. You help us get there, by identifying the flaws and faults, assessing repairs and costs, and documenting it all so we can turn every VIN number into a winning number.

If you're full-time, there's tons of other perks you've come to expect (e.g., 401k + company match, comprehensive medical benefits, etc.) and others you may not (e.g., tuition reimbursement for academic pursuits, adoption assistance, paid time off to volunteer, childcare and eldercare resources, pet insurance (crazy cool, right?) and much more).You'll work in a culture that truly values your role and you as a person.
