Our best Sales Consultants have come from hospitality, retail, trades, military service, and beyond.

IS THIS YOU?

• You're driven, people-first, and proven in sales, hospitality, or a guest-facing role -- automotive experience not required
• You build relationships naturally, follow through consistently, and take pride in how you take care of people
• You're looking for a community-based store in Alaska where your work ethic builds a real career and a lasting reputation

WHO WE ARE

Swickard Auto Group is a hospitality company that happens to sell and service cars. We believe the best guest experiences start with the best employee experiences. That's why we've grown to 40+ rooftops across the West Coast, Alaska, and Hawaii while maintaining a culture built on one simple idea: do right by people, every time.

At Swickard Buick GMC of Palmer, we serve a hardworking, tight-knit community in the heart of the Matanuska-Susitna Valley. Our guests rely on their vehicles -- and they buy from people they trust. Our best Sales Consultants don't always come from automotive. They come from anywhere great people are taught to connect, communicate, and follow through.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Welcome guests with genuine warmth and curiosity -- making every interaction feel personal, not transactional
• Guide guests through vehicle selection with confidence and care -- connecting the right vehicle to their lifestyle, work, and needs
• Present and demonstrate vehicles in a way that connects features to what actually matters to each guest
• Build and maintain a guest pipeline through consistent follow-up and disciplined CRM use
• Collaborate with finance and management to deliver a transparent, seamless purchase experience
• Meet and exceed monthly targets while maintaining strong guest satisfaction scores
• Represent the Buick GMC brand and Swickard's hospitality standards in every conversation

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• No automotive experience required -- the right mindset matters far more here
• Proven success and experience in sales, hospitality, retail, or a guest-facing role
• A natural communicator who listens well, builds trust quickly, and follows through
• Self-motivated with a competitive drive and a team-first attitude
• Comfortable with technology -- CRM tools, digital communication, and online lead follow-up
• Valid driver's license with a clean driving record
• A genuine hospitality mindset -- you treat every guest interaction like it matters, because it does

WHAT WE OFFER

• Income potential of $50,000 - $120,000+ annually
• Paid training program -- we'll teach you the Swickard way and the Buick GMC lineup from day one
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Life insurance and supplemental coverage options
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• Clear career path -- top Sales Consultants grow into finance, management, and leadership roles
• Employee vehicle purchase and service discounts
• A supportive team culture in a community where your reputation compounds over time
