What qualifications do I need for an entry-level car sales job?
While previous sales experience is beneficial, it's not always essential. We look for individuals with a passion for customer service, excellent communication skills, a strong work ethic, and a valid UK driving licence. We provide full training for the right candidates.
What is the typical career path for a Sales Executive?
Many of our Sales Executives progress to roles with greater responsibility. A common path is moving into a Business Manager or Senior Sales Executive position, and from there to a Sales Manager or Used Car Buyer role. We provide ongoing development to help you achieve your career goals.
What does the application process for car dealership sales careers at Lookers involve?
The process typically starts with an online application. If shortlisted, you'll be invited for an initial conversation, which may be followed by a face-to-face interview at one of our dealerships. This gives you a chance to meet the team and see our work environment firsthand.
How is commission structured for sales roles?
Our commission structures are designed to be motivating and rewarding. They are typically based on a combination of sales volume, customer satisfaction scores, and the sale of associated products.
