About the Job
Assistant Manager In Training
Spark is a rapidly growing network of high-tech car washes with plans to conquer the US and beyond.
If you like being around actual human beings (rather than just seeing them on a computer screen), if you want your manager to get to know your strengths and train you (rather than just fire off an email), if you’ve ever wondered what would happen if you put a bunch of balloons through a car wash tunnel (the balloons wouldn’t burst because our state-of-the-art washers are so soft and precise), then Spark is the place for you.
We’re a young, lively, ambitious team with a mission to give every car a clean owner and every employee a fulfilling career. You’d be joining an innovative brand at the start of an exciting journey, with lots of potential for growth, advancement, and a clean car.
