What are the responsibilities and job description for the Car Detailer / Lot Attendant position at Carvana?

INVENTORY ASSOCIATE I, INVENTORY

About Carvana

At Carvana, we sell cars but we aren't car salesmen. Our promise is simple: we won't sell a car to a

customer that we wouldn't sell to our own Mom. Period. To make sure our cars are in first-rate

condition, we've built multiple vehicle Reconditioning Centers around the country, where our cars are inspected, perfected, and photographed before reaching the Carvana website. Using our Carvana

Certified 150-point inspection process, we're able to verify that every vehicle meets our rigorous

mechanical and cosmetic standards.

We strive to provide only the highest quality vehicles to our customers in our mission to deliver a

no-hassle, better car buying experience. We are actively looking for passionate and talented individuals who can help us deliver on that promise.
