Ready to lead a high-performing sales team and represent some of the most iconic automotive brands in the world?
At TPS Aberdeen, part of the Volkswagen Group, we’re searching for an energetic, commercially savvy Sales Manager who’s passionate about leading people, growing business, and delivering best-in-class service.

Who are TPS?

TPS (Trade Parts Specialists) is the only business in the UK with the exclusive rights to supply Genuine Volkswagen Group parts to independent garages and body repairers. We’re part of something big — Audi, SEAT, ŠKODA, Volkswagen Passenger Cars, Commercial Vehicles — and we’re growing fast.

Our network of Centres is powered by 1,500 people who thrive in a culture of recognition, inclusion, and continuous learning. We do things the right way — with integrity, teamwork, and a shared drive to deliver.

What’s the opportunity?

As our Sales Manager, you’ll be the driving force behind our local sales team — coaching, motivating, and leading them to smash targets while delivering a standout customer experience. Reporting to the Centre Manager, you’ll have the freedom to make an impact, build strong customer relationships, and shape the future of our Aberdeen Centre.

What you’ll be doing:

• Lead, coach, and inspire a team of Parts Sales Executives to exceed sales targets.
• Own team performance — using KPIs, feedback, and 1:1 coaching to drive growth.
• Plan and execute local sales campaigns and initiatives to keep customers engaged.
• Support day-to-day operations to ensure customers get the best service every time.
• Collaborate with the Centre Manager to create an energised, high-performing sales culture.
• Keep your finger on the pulse of the market — staying one step ahead of the competition.

What we’re looking for:

• A proven sales leader with experience managing teams in a B2B environment.
• Someone who thrives in a target-driven environment and brings out the best in people.
• A confident communicator who can build strong relationships with customers and colleagues alike.
• Tech‑savvy with strong Microsoft Office and systems knowledge.
• Passion for the automotive sector or a genuine drive to deliver exceptional service.

Why join us?

• Be part of the Volkswagen Group family – an iconic global brand.
• Lead a team where your input is valued and your success is celebrated.
• Access to industry‑leading training and development.
• Great team culture, with recognition and rewards that go beyond just numbers.
