The Role
Wessex Garages are currently looking to recruit Car Sales Advisors for our dealership in Kia, Newport. You will not only be responsible for selling vehicles, but will be selling and promoting Finance, Insurance products and Paint Protection. In this role, you will support our customers through every step of their buying journey—from their first interaction with us to the moment they drive away in their new car. With our comprehensive training and development programme, you’ll gain the skills to engage with customers, identify their needs, and sell vehicles and related products in line with industry standards.

You will be organized, able to process detailed information, and committed to continually developing your product knowledge. With a strong work ethic and an inspiring attitude, you will take ownership of your work and contribute to the success of your team.
