Back Store Manager
Management Columbus , Nebraska Direct Hire Sep 1, 2026
Store Manager / General Manager
Tire Pros / Columbus NE Pay: $65K-85K Base
Ready to Run a Business and Lead a Team?
Tire Pros is looking for a Store Manager / General Manager who can lead people, take care of customers, and drive the success of a local business.
You don't need to know everything about cars or have spent your entire career in the automotive industry. We can teach the automotive side. What we're looking for is someone who knows how to lead a team, build relationships, solve problems, and get results.
If you've been successful managing people in retail, sales, hospitality, service, automotive, or another fast-paced customer-focused business, we'd like to talk.
What You'll Own
This isn't a role where you'll simply follow a checklist. You'll have the opportunity to take ownership of your store and make an impact.
You’ll be responsible for:
Leading, coaching, and motivating your store team
Creating an environment where employees enjoy coming to work and know what's expected of them
Delivering a great experience that keeps customers coming back
Driving sales, profitability, and overall store performance
Keeping daily operations organized and running efficiently
Coordinating the customer and service sides of the business
Recruiting, onboarding, and developing great employees
Managing scheduling, inventory, vendors, and store expenses
Solving problems and making decisions when challenges come up
Partnering with ownership and leadership to find new ways to grow the business
Who We're Looking For
We're more interested in how you lead than whether you can diagnose an engine.
You could be a great fit if you have:
2+ years of management, leadership, or supervisory experience
A track record of leading and developing people
Strong customer service and relationship-building skills
A sales and results-driven mindset
The ability to hold a team accountable while maintaining a positive culture
Confidence making decisions and solving problems
Strong communication and organizational skills
The willingness and ability to learn a new industry
Automotive or tire experience is a plus—but it is not required.
What Success Looks Like
You’ll know you're succeeding when your team is performing, customers are coming back, sales are growing, and the store is operating the way it should.
We're looking for someone who wants to take ownership, not simply manage a shift.
Why Tire Pros?
This is an opportunity to build your career with an established name in the automotive service industry while having the ability to make a real impact at the store level.
We offer:
Competitive base salary
Performance-based bonus/incentive opportunity
Benefits package based on location
Paid time off
Employee discounts
Training and development
Opportunities for continued career growth
Interested?
If you're a strong leader who enjoys building teams, working with customers, growing a business, and being rewarded for results, we'd like to hear from you.
Don’t have an automotive background? Don’t let that stop you from applying. If you can lead the business, we’ll help you learn the business.
