Are you an experienced car salesperson who knows how to turn an enquiry into a happy customer and a completed sale?
DRC Auto Sales is growing, and we are looking for a confident, motivated, and genuinely customer-focused Car Sales Executive to join our team.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who loves speaking with people, understands the excitement of helping a customer find the right car, and has the determination to follow every genuine opportunity from the first enquiry through to handover.
ABOUT US
DRC Auto Sales is an established independent used-car dealership based in Saxmundham, Suffolk.
We work hard, support one another and treat every member of our team with respect. You will not feel like just another employee here—you will become part of a close team where your effort is noticed, your ideas are heard, and your success is celebrated.
We treat our employees in the same way we would want to be treated: with respect, honesty, fairness, and seriousness. In return, we are looking for someone who will bring the same values, energy, and commitment to our company and customers.
YOUR ROLE
Your main responsibility will be to sell cars while giving every customer a friendly, professional and memorable experience.
You will:
- Welcome customers to the dealership and build a genuine connection with them
- Respond quickly and professionally to telephone, email and online enquiries

- Recommend suitable vehicles and clearly explain their features and benefits
- Show customers how the right car can make their daily life easier and more enjoyable
- Arrange viewings and test drives
- Negotiate confidently and professionally
- Guide customers through the sales process from their first enquiry to vehicle handover
- Keep accurate records of conversations, appointments and follow-ups
- Build trust with customers and represent DRC Auto Sales to a high standard
- Work with the rest of the team to achieve individual and dealership sales targets
THE PERSON WE ARE LOOKING FOR
You must have previous car-sales experience and understand how to manage enquiries, follow up leads and close deals professionally.
You should be:
- Confident, positive and comfortable speaking with different types of customers
- A strong communicator in person, over the telephone and by email
- Motivated by achieving results and earning commission
- Able to listen carefully and understand what a customer genuinely needs
- Organised and consistent with follow-ups
- Honest, reliable and respectful
- Professional without sounding scripted or putting pressure on customers
- Comfortable working both independently and as part of a close team
- Able to remain calm and helpful when dealing with questions or concerns
- In possession of a full UK driving licence
WHAT WE OFFER
- A friendly, supportive and family-style working environment
- A competitive basic salary with an attractive commission structure
- The opportunity to earn more through your own effort and results
- Monday and Tuesday off every week
- A growing business where your contribution will genuinely matter
- Support from an experienced and approachable management team
- The opportunity to build long-term customer relationships and develop your career
- Recognition for strong performance, commitment and excellent customer service
This position is ideal for someone who does not want to be treated like a number. We want somebody who will take pride in the company, care about our customers and enjoy being part of our continued growth.
If you have automotive sales experience, enjoy working with people and believe that every genuine lead deserves proper attention, we would love to hear from you.
