No current openings for Ford Lincoln in South Dakota at this time. Positions are posted as employers list them — check back soon.

Ford and Lincoln are deeply embedded in South Dakota's automotive market, where the F-150 is the best-selling vehicle in the state and Ford's truck lineup serves the everyday working needs of South Dakota's corn, soybean, and cattle farming economy, one of the top agricultural producing states in the country. From Sioux Falls's growing financial services corridor to Rapid City's Black Hills tourism gateway and the rural farmland throughout the state, Ford's distribution across South Dakota is among the broadest of any brand, with dealers in communities large and small. South Dakota's lack of a state income tax gives Ford technicians a meaningful take-home pay advantage over peers in neighboring states with income taxes, and South Dakota's harsh winters create distinctive cooling system and battery service demands that keep South Dakota Ford dealerships busy year-round.
