Due to expansion, Charles Hurst BYD is recruiting for an ambitious and experienced Sales Executive to join our hard-working and friendly team on site. Specialising in new EV car sales, you will work alongside our passionate sales team to provide first class customer service.
Joining our hard-working sales team, you will be a team player with exceptional communication skill to build rapport with colleagues and customers. Not only will you be joining one of the top automotive retailers in the UK, but you will also be reporting to Johnathon McConkey (Sales Manager) who will help impact your knowledge and experience, allowing you to develop your skills and establish a strong career within the industry.
Our Sales Executives are the key points of contact and pay close attention to detail to understand customers wants and needs;
- Communicating with customers via email, telephone and in person
- Suggesting suitable vehicles based on customer needs
- Arranging and accompanying customers on test drives
- Negotiating the final price for the sale
- Completing the relevant paperwork for each sale
The ideal candidate will have previous experience with EV, strong communication skills, self-motivated to crack on with the job and passionate about what they do. You will be expected to hit targets so being ambitious and hard-working is essential.
Previous experience in a similar position and within the motor trade would be preferred but not essential as we are always on the look out for new/fresh talent to join our team. You will hold a full UK driving license as you may be expected to drive some of the most prestigious cars on the market!
If your skills and experience match what we are looking for, please apply today and a member of the Talent Acquisition Team will be in touch.
