Job description

Sales Executive
Location: Newbury, Berkshire
Basic Salary: £20,000 | £50,000 OTE
Excellent earning potential | Full-time | Automotive Sales

Looking for a career where your results directly influence your earnings?

We're looking for an ambitious and customer-focused Sales Executive to join a successful automotive dealership in Newbury.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys the buzz of a busy showroom, thrives in a target-driven environment and understands that great sales is about more than simply selling a product. It's about listening, building trust and creating an experience that customers remember.

With a £20,000 basic salary and £50,000 OTE, this role offers strong earning potential for someone prepared to bring energy, commitment and a proactive approach to the sales floor.

Whether you're already an experienced Automotive Sales Executive or have a strong background in a customer-facing, target-driven sales environment, we'd like to hear from you.

The Role

As a Sales Executive, you'll be responsible for guiding customers through the full vehicle purchasing journey, from their first enquiry through to the moment they drive away.

No two days are quite the same. One moment you could be welcoming a customer into the showroom, the next arranging a test drive, discussing finance options or handing over the keys to someone's new car.

You’ll Be Responsible For
  • Welcoming customers and delivering an outstanding showroom experience.
  • Understanding individual customer needs and recommending the right vehicle.
  • Presenting new and used vehicles with confidence and enthusiasm.
  • Conducting professional vehicle demonstrations and test drives.
  • Managing the full sales process from initial enquiry through to handover.
  • Building strong customer relationships to encourage repeat business and referrals.
  • Following up leads and enquiries in a proactive and timely manner.
  • Discussing finance products and additional services where appropriate.
  • Maintaining accurate customer information using the dealership CRM system.
  • Keeping up to date with product knowledge, campaigns and industry developments.
  • Working towards and exceeding individual and team sales targets.
  • Ensuring every customer receives an excellent experience throughout their journey.
What We’re Looking For

We're looking for someone who is commercially minded but also understands the importance of delivering exceptional customer service.

You’ll Ideally Have
  • Previous experience within automotive sales or another target-driven sales environment.
  • A natural ability to build rapport and establish strong relationships.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • A proactive attitude and strong work ethic.
  • The confidence to manage conversations and guide customers through a purchasing decision.
  • A results-focused mindset with the motivation to achieve and exceed targets.
  • Strong organisational and administrative skills.
  • The ability to work well as part of a busy and supportive team.
  • A full UK driving licence.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone with energy, ambition and a genuine desire to succeed.

What’s On Offer?
  • £20,000 basic salary
  • £50,000 OTE
  • Attractive commission and bonus structure.
  • Excellent earning potential for high performers.
  • Ongoing training and development.
  • Opportunity to develop your career within a successful automotive retail business.
  • Supportive and professional working environment.
  • Full-time position.
  • Every Sunday off.
  • A set day off during the week.
  • Working Pattern

This is a full-time position and will include working every Saturday. In return, you'll have every Sunday off, along with a set day off during the week.

Interested?
