New Car Sales Manager - Cheltenham.
  • Salary: £30,000 basic salary, with on target earnings of £50,000.
  • Hours: Mon-Fri 9:00am-6:00pm with a day off in the week, Sat 9:00am-5:00pm, and Sun 10:00am-4:00pm on a rota.
  • Benefits: Company car and laptop, enhanced annual leave, manufacturer training, staff purchase discounts, and a chance to work with a car brand offering a varied product range and a focus on developing new electric models.
Our client, a large multi-franchise-approved car dealer group operating since 1994, is currently looking to recruit a New Car Sales Manager to join their Cheltenham dealership and drive it forward.
 
Reporting to the Group Sales Director and responsible for a new car sales team, you will take full responsibility for the sales operation across new vehicles, creating a high-performing culture while delivering exceptional customer experiences. This is not a desk-based management role. Our client is looking for a hands-on, visible leader who enjoys being on the showroom floor, engaging with customers, supporting the team and leading from the front.

Key responsibilities will include: 
  • Lead, motivate and develop the sales team to achieve and exceed targets.
  • Drive new vehicle sales.
  • Maintain exceptional standards of customer service and customer satisfaction.
  • Manage the sales process from enquiry to delivery, ensuring excellent conversion rates.
  • Monitor stock levels, vehicle preparation and merchandising standards.
  • Deliver strong F&I performance and profitability.
  • Recruit, coach and develop team members to maximise their potential.
  • Build relationships within the local community and identify new business opportunities.
  • Produce accurate reporting and ensure compliance with manufacturer and company standards.
To be eligible, you will live in the Cheltenham region or ideally within a reasonable commuting distance of Cheltenham. Recent or current car sales management experience within a franchise-approved dealership would be desirable, but is non-essential, and our client is willing to consider very experienced Business Manager/Sales Controllers, looking to take the next step in their career. You will need to be motivated/self-driven, adaptable, and have total drive and ambition. You will become the role model for our client's brands, where the ability to lead by example will be as important as the results you deliver. Delighting customers is what sets our client apart, and being prepared to lead from the front is a key requirement. A UK driving license with minimal points is also essential.
 
What's in it for you? For your hard work as a New/Used Car Sales Manager, our client is offering...
  • Starting basic salary of £30,000, with an uncapped bonus scheme available offering on target earning of £50,000+.
  • Access to a personal company car.
  • 31 days annual holiday allowance, which increases over the length of service (any bank holidays worked, you shall gain a day off in lieu).
  • Full manufacturer-approved training/development.
  • Various company benefits, including personal health, eye and dental care, death in service benefit, pension scheme, access to an online retailer discount portal, free MOT test and 50% off servicing, amongst others.
  • Fantastic career prospects with a business that has a 'One Star' status for ‘Best Companies to Work For recognising a high standard of workplace engagement. 
  • Working hours from Monday to Friday, 9:00am-6:00pm with one scheduled day off in the week and one 7:00pm late shift per week, Saturday 9.00am-5.00pm, and Sunday 10.00am-4.00pm on a rota.
