• Competitive compensation with paid management training.
• Direct access to experienced company leadership.
• Opportunity to participate in developing a growing Layton location.
• Hands-on experience across sales, staffing, fleet, and branch operations.
• Clear opportunities for increased responsibility and career advancement.
• Potential progression into an Assistant Manager or Branch Manager position.

We are a family-owned and operated rental car business with more than 45 years of experience. Our company combines the recognition of a nationally established rental brand with the flexibility and personal approach of locally managed operations.

We believe in promoting from within and developing employees who demonstrate leadership potential.

What We're Looking For

We want someone who is dependable, business-minded, and interested in taking the next step professionally.

You may currently be working as a retail supervisor, sales representative, hospitality professional, assistant manager, or operations coordinator and looking for an opportunity to expand your management experience.

Previous management experience is helpful, but we're also interested in individuals who have demonstrated leadership potential through their work history.
