Service Advisor

Email: advisor1@winnipeghonda.net

Hello, My name is Andy Godfrey. I’ve been a service advisor for the Group for many years. There are a lot of things that motivate me to come to work every day. The biggest of this is you, the customer. I strive to create and keep a great rapport and maintain a high level of professionalism with all of my customers. “The Dilawri Experience”. My journey to the service desk has seen me as a car washer at Sunshine Toyota and then detailing and polishing cars. I even went as far as to become a sales consultant within the group. After earning my sales permit I decided providing great after sales service was a greater passion for me than selling. I hope to remain in the Dilawri group and eventually work my way up to Service Manager and after a while to fixed operations manager for the group. I feel that with lots of hard work and a history of providing excellent service to my customers I will get there – with your help. I look forward to meeting you or seeing you again, Andy Godfrey Service Advisor
