The Independent Garage Association (IGA), the UK's largest trade body for independent garages, is seeking a driven and personable Membership Sales Executive.
In this role, you'll work directly with independent garage owners nationwide, helping them stay competitive, grow their businesses, and unlock the full value of IGA membership.

· Build strong connections with garage owners and clearly demonstrate the benefits of membership.
· Drive growth by generating leads, securing new members, and promoting additional services.
· Support existing members to ensure they maximise the value of their membership.
· Carry out member audits and provide practical guidance where required.
· Represent the IGA at regional events and contribute to wider industry initiatives.
Skills & Experience Required
Essential:
· Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
· Strong organisational ability and attention to detail.
· Confident using MS Outlook, Word, and Excel.
· Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel nationwide.
· Adaptable, with the ability to respond positively to changing demands.
Desirable:
· Experience in the garage sector (ideal for ex-mechanics or those with trade knowledge).
· Field-based sales experience, or the ambition to step into this type of role.
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who is:
· Motivated and proactive, with a genuine interest in helping businesses succeed.
· Comfortable working independently, but also a team player who contributes to shared goals.
· Confident in engaging with people from all backgrounds and building long-term relationships.
· Results-driven, resilient, and ready to take ownership of their targets.
· Eager to learn, grow, and make a real difference to independent garages across the UK.
If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.
