Trainee Sales person/Showroom Assistant
Martins Group is a family owned business, serving customers in Hampshire, Berkshire and Surrey for over 100 years.
The Role
We are looking for a motivated Trainee Sales Executive to join our Volkswagen dealership in Farnham, Hampshire. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is eager to build a career in automotive sales, working as part of a supportive and experienced team.
You don't need to have car sales experience – what matters most is your enthusiasm, people skills and drive to succeed. We'll give you the training, support and career progression you need to become a successful Sales Executive.
What you'll be doing
As a Trainee Sales Executive, you will:
* Welcome customers into the showroom and assist with their enquiries, both face to face and over the phone.
* Learn how to guide customers through the sales process, from first enquiry to vehicle handover.
* Support the sales team with administration, test drive appointments and vehicle handovers.
* Build confidence in discussing finance, insurance and vehicle options as your training develops.
* Gain in-depth product knowledge of the Volkswagen range through training and hands-on learning.
* Deliver excellent customer service at every stage, ensuring a positive experience for all our customers.
What we're looking for
* A positive, enthusiastic and professional approach.
* Strong communication skills and the ability to build rapport easily.
* A willingness to learn and develop new skills.
* Confidence with numbers and basic IT.
* A full UK driving licence.
Previous retail, customer service or sales experience is an advantage, but not essential – if you have the right attitude, we'll provide the rest.
What we offer
* Full training programme with clear career progression into a Sales Executive role.
* A supportive team environment where you'll learn from experienced colleagues.
* Company car once fully qualified as a Sales Executive.
* Competitive salary with uncapped commission once you progress.
* Excellent long-term career opportunities within Martins Group.
If you're ready to take your first step into a rewarding career in automotive sales, we'd love to hear from you.
