About Profile

This candidate is a motivated and dependable automotive professional with close to 10 years’ experience across automotive sales administration, customer service and account management within busy dealership environments. Their background combines strong organisational ability with excellent communication skills and a proactive approach to supporting sales operations and customer experience within the motor trade.

Having progressed from Sales Administration into Account Management through strong performance and initiative, they have developed excellent all-round understanding of dealership operations, finance products and customer handling processes. Their experience includes supporting multiple departments while maintaining high standards of professionalism, organisation and customer service.

A major strength is their adaptability and willingness to support wider business operations when required. Throughout their career they have assisted across customer service, complaints handling, reception and compliance functions while maintaining strong working relationships with colleagues, customers and management teams.

They are highly organised, customer-focused and confident working within fast-paced environments where attention to detail and strong communication are essential. Their experience includes CRM management, handling customer enquiries, supporting finance processes and ensuring all administration tasks are completed accurately and efficiently.

Alongside their automotive experience, they also bring strong leadership and teamwork skills developed through management and supervisory positions outside of the motor trade. Their ability to manage workloads, delegate tasks and remain calm under pressure demonstrates professionalism and reliability within busy operational environments.

Professional, ambitious and eager to continue progressing within automotive retail, they are now looking for a long-term Sales Administrator opportunity within a professional dealership group where they can continue developing their career.
