We’re looking for a Sales Executive who wants to build a career here, not just fill a seat. You’ll take ownership of your own customers from first enquiry to handover — qualifying leads, demonstrating vehicles, structuring finance, and closing the deal. This is a genuine growth role. As the business expands we want the person in this seat to grow with it, into senior sales, business manager, or sales management.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Managing inbound enquiries from web, phone, and walk-in, and following up every one properly
- Qualifying customers on needs, budget, and part-exchange, then matching them to the right vehicle from our stock
- Conducting vehicle demonstrations and accompanied test drives
- Presenting finance, warranty, and protection products fairly
- Appraising part-exchange vehicles and agreeing valuations with the Sales Manager
- Negotiating and closing deals while protecting margin
- Keeping the CRM/DMS accurate and up to date every single day
- Preparing vehicles for handover and delivering a handover the customer remembers for the right reasons
- Following up after sale to drive reviews, referrals, and repeat business
- Hitting agreed monthly targets on units, finance penetration, and add-on products
What We’re Looking For
Essential
- A full UK driving licence
- Confident, professional communication — face to face, on the phone, and over email/WhatsApp
- Resilience and self-motivation: you chase the follow-up, you don’t wait for it to come to you
- Comfortable working to targets and being measured on results
- Good numeracy — you can talk a customer through a finance quote and stand behind the figures
- Availability to work weekends on a rota (Saturdays are our busiest day)
- Right to work in the UK
Desirable
- Previous motor trade sales experience, or strong sales experience from another sector (retail, telesales, hospitality, estate agency)
- We will consider applicants without motor trade experience if you can show a track record of selling and a genuine interest in cars.
Why Join Us
- Uncapped commission — your earnings are down to you, and our top performers earn well above OTE
- Clear progression — a defined path to Senior Sales Executive, Business Manager, or Sales Manager as we open new sites
- Full training and support, including manufacturer and FCA compliance training
- Quality stock and real marketing spend, so you’re working live enquiries rather than cold lists
- Demonstrator scheme
- Days holiday
- Staff discount on vehicles, servicing, and parts
