Call Center Tech Support Specialist

Overview

Since our founder, Chip Wood, opened the doors to the first Tire Discounters over 45 years ago, we have been raising the bar in the tire and automotive service business. As the country’s largest family-owned and operated automotive service provider, we have separated ourselves by treating customers and their cars with care and respect while focusing on transparency in pricing and providing the highest level of service.

Now, with new products and services needed to maintain modern vehicles, Tire Discounters and its many other brands like Chip’s Auto Glass and Butler Tires and Wheels are growing and expanding like wildfire. Over 2000 strong, our team members are the best in the business and are actual employers of choice. We separate ourselves by providing a variety of career paths, industry-leading training and development programs, clear advancement tracks, comprehensive benefit plans, and more!
