About the Business

Our business started over 60 years ago and has been in the same family ever since. From our very humble beginnings, we have grown to be in the top 100 car dealers in the country, with an ambition to be in the top 50 very soon. Across our 16 businesses, we have a stable workforce of over 400 people, many of whom have been with us for years. We are always on the lookout for nice, genuine people who genuinely care about our customers and have a can-do attitude.

Our recruitment philosophy is that we recruit for attitude and train for skills, which means that although we’re often looking for specific technical skills, if you like working with customers and you are attracted by our Family Values of Fit, Fun, Family and Fearless, you’ll fit in well here and we’d like to hear from you even if you have no experience of the automotive industry.

We’ll expect you to work hard but in return we’ll offer you an industry-leading package, flexible working hours, and a real opportunity to progress: we prefer to promote from within, and you will see this in every one of our sites. You must possess an outrageous ambition to want to be the best and you won’t let anyone stop you.

What we offer

• World-class training provided from our own trainer and our brand partners
• 30 days annual leave inclusive of 8 bank holidays, with average commission paid during your annual leave.
• Preferential rates for servicing and repairs on your family and friends’ cars.
