Job Description

PowerStop is the market leader in aftermarket automotive brake kits, with a leading share in kits sold at all major online retailers and unmatched omnichannel operational capabilities. PowerStop’s core product categories include brake kits sold via online retailers (e.g., Amazon, Rock Auto, AutoZone) and brake components and accessories sold primarily via the traditional warehouse distributor channel. Unlike traditional brake suppliers, PowerStop started in the online channel and pioneered a product tailor-made for it – a brake kit containing all the parts and hardware needed for a brake replacement or upgrade. Today, more than 70% of revenue is derived from online channels, and PowerStop’s leading position is a result of its consumer-friendly kit offerings, strong consumer branding, and operational competencies. PowerStop has also become a trusted partner to its warehouse distributor customers through its industry-leading fulfillment, product quality, and service.

PowerStop has a proven track record of consistent, outstanding organic growth, averaging ~20%+ annual growth over the last decade due to its established leadership position, critical focus on the end-consumer, and broad market coverage (98% of the vehicle parc and across the value spectrum). In addition to continued growth within the Company’s existing channels, there are multiple levers for further growth including new product introductions, capture of IIFM (Install It For Me) and DIFM (Do It For Me) consumers, and strategic M&A.
