The Role

As a Sales Executive, you'll help customers find the right car finance option that fits their needs. You'll handle inbound leads, build relationships, and guide customers through their car buying journey - no cold calling, just connecting and helping people every day.

What you'll be doing:

• Managing a pipeline of warm, pre-qualified customers who have already expressed interest in finance, so your focus is on converting rather than cold prospecting.
• Speaking with customers over the phone and via digital channels to understand their financial needs, circumstances, and goals.
• Building strong rapport quickly, asking the right questions, and guiding customers through available finance options in a clear, supportive way.
• Keeping customers updated throughout the process, managing expectations, and delivering a high-quality customer experience from first contact to completion.

What you'll need:

• At least 12 months of experience in a sales or customer-focused role, ideally within a target-driven environment.
• A background in roles such as telesales, car sales, estate agency, contact centres, or financial services would be highly beneficial.
• Strong communication and listening skills, with the ability to build trust and explain information clearly and confidently.
• A proactive, positive attitude with a genuine passion for helping customers find the right solution.
• Confidence working towards targets, with resilience and motivation to overcome objections and close deals.

At Zuto, we don't just talk about supporting our people - we live it. Here's what makes being a Zutonite so special:
