• Compliance & Documentation: Ensure all contract paperwork, dealership logs, and customer CRM profiles are meticulously completed and maintained in line with company policy and standards.

• Customer Experience (CSI): Maintain exceptionally high customer satisfaction metrics by ensuring standard, fair, and professional guest experiences from initial test drive to vehicle delivery.

• Implement effective sales strategies and processes to drive new and used car sales.

• Analyse sales data and performance metrics to identify opportunities for improvement.

• A proven track record of hitting volume and gross profit targets in a competitive retail environment.

• Strong pipeline and CRM management skills (experience with major dealership DMS platforms is highly regarded).

• A process-oriented leadership style—someone who values meticulous documentation, strict adherence to compliance standards, and fair, consistent dealership policies.

• Exceptional communication, negotiation, and conflict-resolution skills.

• A valid NSW Driver’s License.
