Job Description

Automotive Controller Nashville, TN Local Family Owned and Operated The Freeland family has been selling cars for almost 100 years. Tom Freeland, born and raised in Fowler, Indiana, opened his Chevrolet dealership in the 1930’s. Shortly after, Tom’s cousin, Bean Freeland, launched his initial Studebaker and Case Tractor dealerships, also in Fowler, Indiana. What these cousins didn’t realize was that they were laying the foundation for four generations of Freeland family members in the auto industry. Fast forward and the Freeland’s have established their legacy as a true car family. With dealerships spanning across multiple states, and owning 12 new car dealerships at their peak, their entrepreneurial spirit is closely intertwined to the automotive industry. But it’s not only new car sales – in the 1980’s George Freeland earned the title of the world’s largest Chris-Craft boat dealer. In the 1990’s, Ben Freeland pioneered one of the first nationwide online car sales companies in America. Today, Nick Rice, part of the Freeland Family, owns AutoMasters in Nashville, Chris Freeland owns Harbor Nissan in Port Charlotte, Florida, and Ben Freeland owns multiple new car franchises in Nashville. Auto sales are a Freeland tradition passed down more reliably than the family Land Cruiser. The owner, Ben Freeland, is passionate about developing his employees and promoting from within. Ben takes his company motto “Where People Matter” to heart, and you’ll experience it from your very first day on the job.
