Sales Manager
Wantage, Oxfordshire
Are you a Ferrari kind of person? Perhaps a Porsche or an Aston is more your style? Can you tell the difference between a Boxster and a Cayman? And then can you talk about why the Cayman is better? (Is it?) If so, you may well be the person we are looking for.
About Us
We are Maundrells, a specialist luxury car dealership with a passion for high performance, high quality, prestige vehicles.
With the highest specifications, we offer sports, 4X4 and prestige vehicles and seek to build long-term relationships with our customers, many of whom return to us time and again for their next automotive masterpiece.
We were founded (and still run) by two car enthusiasts who aim to take the pressure, intensity and stress out of the car-buying experience, through their knowledge, dedication and the relaxed atmosphere they have created in our showroom.
As our brand continues to become more popular and our customer base grows, we now have a requirement for a Sales Manager to join our team and help us do more.
The Benefits
- £60,000 OTE
This is no ordinary dealership sales role and we sell no ordinary cars.
From the wildly exotic and the track day tearaway to the prestige family car or even the dream four-wheel drive, we boast a range of vehicles that will leave even the most avid car collector gaping.
And we want you to sell them all and lead an inspired team to do the same.
We’ve created the perfect environment for performance and prestige care sales, relaxed, informal yet stocked with the horsepower to keep our clients happy. We’re looking for someone to lead our sales, develop our team and advance our business.
If you are someone who sees this as a privilege and an opportunity, we want to hear from you.
The Role
As the Sales Manager, you will be tasked with providing inspirational leadership, support and guidance to our salespeople in a manner that will help drive profitable vehicle, finance, warranty and G-Tech sales.
We already have a ‘good’ sales team in place, but we want them to become Great. Equally, we already provide a very good customer experience, but we want to become Exceptional. And this is where you come in.
Your role will be to ensure customers are delighted, every time, that through them we gain referrals and, in turn, we increase our profits.
With experience levels that show us you already know how to succeed in the automotive world, you’ll be the catalyst that will take our business to the next level. Your targets will be focused around increasing the range of finance and related products we sell, improving closing rates and delivering outstanding customer experience that enhance referral sales.
About You
To be considered as our Sales Manager, you will need:
- A proven and progressive track record of two or more years in premium automotive sales
- A track record of consistently exceeding customer satisfaction and profitability objectives
- At least two years or more experience as a successful retail, transaction and/or business manager ideally in a premium car dealership
- A good level of IT literacy, especially with MS Office suite
- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills including a good telephone or video-call manner
