About Profile
This candidate is a highly motivated automotive sales professional who has successfully progressed from Sales Executive into a high-performing Business Manager position within a main dealer environment. With a strong track record in vehicle sales, finance penetration and customer retention, they have consistently delivered excellent commercial results while maintaining outstanding customer service standards.
Their automotive career has been built around developing long-term customer relationships, maximising finance and insurance opportunities and managing the complete customer journey from initial enquiry through to vehicle handover. They have a proven ability to identify opportunities, convert leads and consistently exceed sales targets within competitive dealership environments.
A key strength is their finance and insurance expertise. Having operated successfully as a Business Manager, they are experienced presenting finance packages, protection products and value-added services while ensuring full FCA compliance throughout the sales process. Their ability to balance customer satisfaction with commercial performance has resulted in consistently strong results and repeat business.
Alongside their Business Manager experience, they have also gained valuable Sales Management exposure, leading and coaching sales teams, monitoring KPIs, improving CRM utilisation and supporting overall dealership performance. Their leadership approach is focused on accountability, development and maintaining high standards across all areas of the sales operation.
Prior to the motor trade, they developed strong leadership, organisational and communication skills through a successful military career. This background has helped shape a disciplined, professional and resilient approach that translates exceptionally well into high-performance automotive retail environments.
Now looking to return to a long-term main dealer opportunity, they are seeking a Business Manager role where they can continue delivering strong finance performance, supporting dealership profitability and developing their career within a progressive automotive group.
