About the Role
We are looking for an organised, commercially minded Sales Administrator to support the development of our vehicle leasing and finance proposition.
This is a varied role combining customer service, sales support and administration. Vehicle leasing can involve a detailed process, so we need someone who can confidently manage enquiries from initial contact through to quotation, application, documentation and vehicle delivery.

- Keeping customers updated on application decisions, vehicle availability and delivery timescales
- Maintaining accurate customer and application records within the CRM
- Ensuring documents are completed correctly and processes are followed
- Supporting the development of internal vehicle-leasing procedures
- Identifying delays or issues and taking ownership of resolving them
- Providing general administrative and sales support where required
- Working toward agreed sales, customer-service and operational KPIs
About You
You will be organised, confident speaking with customers and able to manage several applications or enquiries at the same time. You should have a strong eye for detail and be comfortable taking ownership of a customer journey from beginning to end.
The ideal candidate will have:
- Previous experience in vehicle leasing, motor finance, vehicle sales or dealership administration
- Alternatively, strong experience in a sales administration or customer-facing financial-services role
- Good telephone and written communication skills
- A proactive and commercially focused approach
- Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
- The ability to explain quotations, options and processes clearly
- Experience using CRM or customer-management systems
- Confidence working toward sales and performance targets
- The ability to work independently while contributing to a wider team
- A responsible approach to customer information, documentation and compliance
What We Offer
- Salary of approximately £30,000 per annum, depending on experience
- The opportunity to help develop a new and growing area of the business
- A varied position combining sales, administration and customer relationship management
- Support and training on our systems, products and processes
- The potential for the role to grow as the vehicle-leasing proposition develops
