We believe our working hours are class leading. You will work 5 days per week, an average of hours per week with every other weekend off.
About the business Our business started over 60 years ago and has been in the same family ever since. From our very humble beginnings, we have grown to be in the top 100 car dealers in the country, with an ambition to be in the top 50 very soon. Across our 16 businesses we have a stable workforce of over 450 people, many of whom have been with us for years. We are always on the lookout for nice, genuine people who genuinely care about our customers and have a can do attitude.
Our recruitment philosophy is that we recruit for attitude and train for skills, which means that although we’re often looking for specific technical skills, if you like working with customers and you are attracted by our Family Values of Fit, Fun, Family and Fearless, you’ll fit in well here and we’d like to hear from you even if you have no experience of the automotive industry.
We offer manufacture training for product knowledge to give you the technical skills you need, and we work with our own world class sales trainer who will give you everything you need to be a “top one percenter”.
We’ll expect you to work hard but in return we’ll offer you an industry leading package, flexible working hours and a real opportunity to progress: we prefer to promote from within and you will see this in everyone of our sites. You must possess an outrageous ambition to want to be the best and you won’t let anyone stop you.
What we offer:
1. Working hours that are 5 days per week on a rota basis that covers between – with every other weekend off.
2. World class training provided from our own trainer and our brand partners.
3. Uncapped commission with higher bandings for high performance.
4. Demonstrator vehicle available when you first join.
