- Going out to inspect vehicles running the numbers and making an offer that works for both sides

- Monetary assistance toward any vehicle you lease through our dealerships
- Great discounts when purchasing or leasing a new car through our local stores
- A clear path into Used Car Management Sales or Acquisitions if thats where you want to grow
Who Were Looking For
You should know cars. Not just brands. Trims packages mileage curves common issues what a clean title and a solid Carfax actually look like and what a car is worth in todays market (not last years).
Backgrounds that tend to do well here:
- Auction buyers or runners (our auction folks have been some of our best)
- Used car buyers or vehicle appraisers
- Auto sales pros looking to step off the showroom floor
- Service advisors wholesalers or detail shop veterans ready for something new

Beyond the car knowledge youll need to:
- Work independently and stay organized without someone standing over you

- Hold yourself to high standards of integrity
- Carry a valid drivers license with a clean record
