Standards. You’ll also perform flat tire repairs in accordance with Tire Industry Standards and complete 40KM torque checks as required.
Beyond the technical work, you’ll play an active role on the sales floor — assisting members with tire selection, processing payments accurately, handling refunds for warranty returns, and communicating with the Tire Centre manager and other departments regarding special orders, pricing, and inventory.
