WHAT DOES A GOLF CART MECHANIC DO?

At the direction of your Service Advisor, you’ll perform the diagnoses and repair of golf and utility carts while ensuring all repairs address the problem and not the symptom. You’ll also be expected to identify additional safety, mechanical and other items in need of repair when working on the equipment. These additional repairs are to be clearly documented on the work order as well as communicated directly to the customer with the goal of gaining approval to go forward with them before the work is done, or before leaving the job site if on the road. You’ll keep track of your time throughout the day to ensure correct billing of your 8 hours each day. You will work closely with your Service Advisor to mitigate when lost, and/or overtime may be incurred, and you’ll keep them updated on your job progress through the day.
