Looking for your next step after retail or hospitality or a new opportunity in Car Sales?

If you’re great with people, love delivering brilliant customer experiences and thrive in a fast‑paced, target‑driven environment – you might have exactly what it takes to succeed in car sales.

We’re looking for an experienced Car Sales Executive or somebody from retail, hospitality or other customer‑facing sales background who wants to turn their people skills into a high‑earning, long‑term career.

You don’t need automotive experience – we’ll teach you everything you need to know.

This is a role where service, rapport‑building and confidence matter just as much as sales skills – which is why many of our top performers previously worked in retail or hospitality.

What you’ll be doing

• Welcoming customers and delivering an outstanding experience from start to finish
• Understanding customer needs and matching them with the right vehicle and finance options
• Arranging and conducting test drives
• Building relationships that turn first‑time buyers into loyal, repeat customers
• Working to achievable targets with the support of an experienced management team

We’d love to hear from you if you:

• Are confident, motivated and enjoy speaking to people
• Like working towards targets and being rewarded for success
• Want a career where effort is properly recognised
• Hold a full UK driving licence

What we offer

• Uncapped commission with realistic, transparent earning potential
• Company car as part of your package
• No Sunday working for better balance
• Full onboarding and structured training programme
• Opportunity to build a long‑term career with progression

  Ready for a change?

  If you’re great with customers and ready to earn what you’re worth, we’d love to hear from you.

  Compliance & Values

  As a values-driven business, how you behave matters. You’ll be expected to act in good faith at all times and consistently deliver the right outcomes for our customers.

  Representing the dealership every day, you will set the standard for integrity. It’s your responsibility to ensure the products and services you offer genuinely meet customer needs, protect them from harm and encourage long‑term loyalty. Building trust should be at the heart of every interaction.

  To protect our customers and our reputation, you will be required to complete a DBS check, along with regular fit and proper person assessments. We will also request references from previous employers as part of our pre‑employment checks.

  We are proud to be the Motor Retailer who invests more in our colleague's personal development than any other, so if you are successful, you can look forward to on‑going training opportunities that provide you with the right career path, career progression and a range of benefits you would expect from an employer of choice which includes:

  • 25 days holiday rising to 29 with length of service - plus bank holidays
  • Access to our online rewards platform giving you cash back and discounts for multiple retailers
  • Preferential Service Rates
  • Company Car
  • Colleague Purchase Scheme
  • Share Incentive Scheme
  • Pension
  • Enhanced Maternity and Paternity

  You will need to have a full UK driving license to be considered for this role. If your application is successful, we will need to complete employment checks prior to you starting with us. For this role, these can include us verifying your recent employment, address and credit history. We may also conduct a criminal record check and a driving licence check.
