Used Sales Executive in Bristol

At Wessex Garages, we’ve been putting customers first and delivering excellence in automotive retail for over 35 years. With dealerships across South Wales and the South West of England, we proudly represent leading manufacturers including Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda, GWM and Mitsubishi. For these leading brands we supply new and used cars and vans, deliver after sales support and champion the Motability Scheme.

About the role

Wessex Garages are currently looking to recruit a Used Car Sales Executive for our Nissan dealership in Cribbs. You will not only be responsible for selling vehicles, but will be selling and promoting Finance, Insurance products and Paint Protection. In this role, you will support our customers through every step of their buying journey—from their first interaction with us to the moment they drive away in their new car. With our comprehensive training and development programme, you’ll gain the skills to engage with customers, identify their needs, and sell vehicles and related products in line with industry standards.

Person specification

Our customers are at the heart of everything we do, so we’re looking for someone with a passion for delivering excellent customer service. While previous sales experience is not essential, we are seeking a positive, motivated person who is ready to achieve and grow in a results‑driven environment. You will be organised, able to process detailed information, and committed to continually developing your product knowledge. With a strong work ethic and an inspiring attitude, you will take ownership of your work and contribute to the success of your team. You’ll also inspire your colleagues to reach their full potential, helping to drive sales in our dealership.
