Job description

We are looking for a Car Sales Executive to join our successful team at Vertu Renault Exeter. Whether you come from retail, hospitality, leisure, or another customer-focused background, we'd love to hear from you. Previous automotive experience isn't essential. What matters most is your passion for delivering outstanding customer service and your drive to succeed.

We'll provide comprehensive training and a structured onboarding programme, giving you all the tools, knowledge, and support you need to build a rewarding, long-term career in automotive sales.

This opportunity offers a competitive basic salary of £27,000, with uncapped commission and realistic on-target earnings of £45,000. Top performers regularly achieve £60,000+, making this an excellent opportunity for ambitious individuals looking to maximise their earning potential.

Why This Could Be the Perfect Career Move

• Realistic earnings of £45,000, with the opportunity to earn £60,000+
• Uncapped commission, rewarding your hard work and success
• Company car provided
• No Sunday working, supporting a healthy work-life balance
• Industry-leading training, ongoing coaching, and clear career progression opportunities
• Join a supportive, high-performing team with long-term career prospects

At Vertu, we believe success should go hand in step with a great quality of life. You'll work a 40-hour week across five 8-hour shifts, including most Saturdays, which are our busiest and most rewarding sales days. In return, you'll enjoy a day off during the week and, because we're closed on Sundays, a guaranteed day every week to relax, recharge, and spend time doing what matters most.

About the Role

As a Car Sales Executive, you'll play a key role in helping customers find the perfect vehicle while delivering an exceptional buying experience from start to finish.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Welcoming customers and creating a positive, professional first impression
• Understanding individual customer needs and recommending the most suitable vehicle and finance solutions
• Arranging and conducting engaging test drives
• Building lasting relationships that encourage repeat business and customer loyalty
• Working towards achievable sales targets with the support of an experienced management team

We'd Love to Hear From You If You:

• Have experience in retail, hospitality, leisure, sales, or another customer-facing environment
• Enjoy meeting new people and delivering exceptional customer experiences
• Are self-motivated, ambitious, and driven to achieve results
• Thrive in a target-focused environment where success is recognised and rewarded
• Are seeking a long-term career with excellent earning potential and progression opportunities
• Hold a full UK driving licence

Our Benefits

• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, rising to 29 days with length of service
• Access to our online rewards platform, offering cashback and discounts with hundreds of retailers
• Preferential vehicle servicing and repair rates
• Company car
• Colleague vehicle purchase scheme
• Share incentive scheme
• Company pension
• Enhanced maternity and paternity benefits
• Ongoing training, development, and career progression opportunities throughout your career

A full UK driving licence is required for this position.

If successful, you will be required to complete pre-employment checks before your start date. These may include employment and address history verification, credit and criminal record checks, and a driving licence check.
