Vertu Ford Wigan
It’s an exciting time to join Ford Wigan, as we continue to expand!
We’re looking for a Used Car Sales Executive from retail, hospitality or other customer‑facing sales backgrounds who want to turn their people skills into a high‑earning, long‑term career.
Why this role?
- Competitive pay: Starting salary of £27,000 plus uncapped commission. Realistic on‑target earnings of £45,000 with top performers earning £60,000+
- Company car included as part of your package
- No experience? No problem! Full training and a structured onboarding programme are provided to set you up for success.
Work-life balance matters
- 40-hour work week (five 8-hour shifts)
- Most Saturdays are worked (our busiest day), but you’ll always get a weekday off
- Sundays are yours — we’re closed, so you can truly recharge
What you’ll do
As a Sales Executive, you’ll play a key role in representing the dealership while guiding customers through their car buying journey from start to finish—welcoming them into the dealership, arranging and conducting test drives, and clearly presenting vehicle, finance, insurance, and accessory options in a compliant way. You’ll ensure everything is transparent, suitable, and aligned to customer needs, always acting with integrity and in the best interests of the customer.
You’ll take the time to understand each individual’s requirements and match them with the right solution, building strong relationships that turn first-time buyers into loyal, repeat customers. You’ll engage with customers in person, online, over the phone, and via video, so confidence with technology and clear, friendly communication are essential.
Working to achievable targets, you’ll be supported by an experienced management team in a collaborative environment that values great service, rapport building, and teamwork just as much as sales skills—which is why many of our top performers come from retail or hospitality backgrounds.
What we’re looking for
- Have experience in retail, hospitality, leisure or customer‑facing sales
- Are confident, motivated and enjoy speaking to people
- Excellent organisation skills – able to manage a busy diary, prioritise effectively, and follow key processes
- Like working towards targets and being rewarded for success
- Want a career where effort is properly recognised
- A full driving licence (manual & automatic).
We’re looking for someone enthusiastic, motivated, and committed to doing the right thing, who thrives in a fast-paced, target-driven environment and enjoys helping customers make informed decisions while delivering a great experience
What you’ll get in return
We believe in supporting our colleagues to grow and thrive, offering:
- 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays), increasing with service.
- Access to our online rewards platform with cashback and discounts.
- Preferential service rates & colleague purchase scheme.
- Share Incentive Scheme & pension.
- Enhanced maternity and paternity leave.
- Clear progression and long‑term career opportunities
We’re proud to invest more in colleague development than any other motor retailer, helping you build a career that works for you.
What happens next
Successful candidates will be required to complete standard pre-employment checks, including employment and reference verification, credit and driving licence checks, and a DBS check. You’ll also be subject to ongoing fit and proper assessments, reflecting our commitment to protecting our customers and maintaining the highest standards across the business.
