A genuinely family–owned and run business, built on long–standing relationships and customer trust.
What you'll be doing
Full responsibility for Aftersales operations across service and parts
Leading, mentoring, and developing a team of approx. 25 staff
Ensuring brand compliance and manufacturer standards are consistently achieved
Driving customer experience and satisfaction scores to the highest levels
Overseeing labour and parts performance, analysing P&L and identifying profit opportunities
Managing workflow, KPIs and performance across a high–volume environment
Implementing and maintaining efficient systems and processes (experience with Keyloop Drive highly advantageous)
What we're looking for
Main franchised dealer experience is essential
Extensive Aftersales and Service Department management background
Strong leadership skills, with proven ability to manage and develop teams
Demonstrable success in improving customer experience scores
Experience managing volume workshop throughput and multi–brand operations
Commercially aware, with P&L and budget responsibility background
VAG brand experience strongly preferred (though not essential)
The package
Basic salary of 60,000
OTE up to 75,000 (flexibility to increase for Vaccredited candidates)
Clear progression opportunities within a growing, independent dealer group
The autonomy and responsibility to run a thriving Aftersales operation your way
