We are looking for individuals who have a passion for selling and providing advice and guidance to our customers. Our apprentices will gain a thorough understanding of our product range and be able to communicate the benefits of owning a Mercedes-Benz to those making enquiries.

“We have an ethos of providing outstanding customer service. We were honoured as the UK Retailer of the Year by Mercedes-Benz UK for exceptional performance during 2011. We therefore want the best and we will provide the best training. It is a wonderful opportunity for those wanting an apprenticeship in sales.”
