Our client, a multi-franchise approved car dealership located in the Newport region, requires a Parts Advisor to join their busy Parts Department.
Reporting to the Parts Manager and working alongside three other parts staff, you will be responsible for accurately identifying and promptly picking and supplying vehicle parts to our clients’ workshop staff to carry out vehicle repairs. You will also carry out parts stock control and audits, and deal with trade/retail customers regarding parts inquiries.
In the first instance, our client is looking for candidates with recent or current experience working in the automotive industry and who have familiarity with vehicles. Parts experience, ideally working with a similar automotive business, would be highly beneficial but is non-essential, and our client is very open to considering candidates from a similar automotive aftersales background who want to start a new chapter in their career. You will need to be IT literate, given that you will work daily with several electronic parts catalogue systems and a dealer management system (Pinnacle). You will also ideally hold a UK driving license with minimal points, and have strong customer service/sales skills with a friendly and charismatic manner.
What's in it for you? For your hard work as a Parts Advisor, our client is offering:
- Starting salary around £27,000 per annum, pending experience.
- Access to a monthly profit-related bonus scheme averaging around £3,000 per annum (some of our clients' staff are earning double this amount!)
- Fully funded training and development.
- Overtime paid at time and a half rate.
- 30 days annual leave (including the bank holidays)
- Workplace pension scheme.
- Company benefits include staff discounts, health care provisions, internal competitions/prizes, and genuine career progression opportunities.
- Fantastic career prospects with a large dealer group with multiple sites across the region.
- 40-hour week Monday to Friday, with 8-hour shifts between 7:30am-5:30pm and Saturdays on a rota 8:30am to 12:30pm, paid at time and a half.
