Transaction Manager- Ford

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 50 car dealers in the country. Across our 26 businesses we have a stable workforce of over 600 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. Although we’re often looking for specific technical skills, if you like working with customers and 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.

We offer manufacturer training for product knowledge to give you the technical skills you need, and we work with our own world‑class sales trainer who will give you everything you need to be a “top one‑percenter”.

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 everyone of our sites. You must possess an outrageous ambition to want to be the best and you won’t let anyone stop you.

We are looking for someone who is able to listen to the customer’s needs and adapt your skills and knowledge to suit the customer individually. As a Transaction Manager you will have to be confident working to targets and deadlines and be able to maximise every opportunity.

You need to be able to demonstrate a highly developed sales ability together with an outstanding commitment to customer care, with experience of F&I, deal stacking, second‑facing, coaching and development of the team and providing assistance to the Sales Manager.
