Chesterfield - parts sales advisor

Chesterfield – Part Sales Advisor

Join a family‑run business where your work genuinely matters.

Salary: £29,998.80 – £35,884.99 per year.

Hours: 42.5 hours per week (Mon–Fri) + alternate Saturdays.

Location: Chesterfield.

At SDL, you won’t be lost in a big corporate machine - you’ll join a friendly, supportive, family‑run business where people look out for each other.

We’ve built our reputation over 47 years by treating customers well and taking care of our teams. When you join us, you become part of that family ethos from day one.

What you’ll be doing

This is a hands‑on role at the heart of our branch. You’ll be serving customers on the counter and over the phone, understanding what they need, finding the right parts and making sure they leave happy. You’ll work closely with the logistics team to keep orders moving and help keep the branch running smoothly every day.

If you enjoy helping people, solving problems, and being part of a busy, focused team, you’ll feel right at home here.

Who we’re looking for

• Communicates well and enjoys talking to customers.
• Can pick up systems quickly.
• Has an interest in cars/mechanics or previous experience in sales/advice work.
• Stays calm under pressure.
• Brings a positive, reliable, “team‑first” attitude.

Experience with MAM or similar software is helpful, but not essential.

Training & progression

Every new starter begins with our SDL Sales Academy, where you’ll learn everything you need to do the job with confidence. You’ll spend time at our Academy of Excellence in Clay Cross, meet the teams who support the branches, and get hands‑on product and systems training.

We promote people based on attitude and performance, not how long they’ve been here. For example:

• Jordan joined with no experience and is now a Branch Supervisor.
• Hannah moved from retail and is now a Senior Sales Advisor.

Your progression is genuinely in your hands.

What we offer

Alongside a Competitive Salary, you’ll receive:

• Bonus schemes.
• Staff discount across SDL shops.
• Health Cash Plan (claim back on dental, optical, physio, etc.).
• Discounts on retail, gyms, travel, entertainment and more.
• 3% employer pension contribution.
• Company‑branded uniform.
• 24/7 employee advice line & GP phone access.
• Death in Service cover.
• Extra holidays for long service.

And above all – a stable role in a friendly, growing business that values what you do.

Hours

• 42.5 hours per week.
• Monday–Friday between 7am–6pm.
• Every other Saturday (5 hours).
• 30‑minute meal break each day.
