Sales Associate Automotive (Sales Consultant)

Ford of Pleasanton | El Toro Auto Group

Let’s be real… this is not your typical car sales job.

At Ford of Pleasanton, we’re not here to “sell cars” the old-school way. We’re building a team of professionals who know how to connect with people, deliver an outstanding experience, and earn customers for life.

We operate out of a brand-new, multi-million-dollar, state-of-the-art facility, and our store is growing fast — which means if you’re driven, coachable, and ready to work, your income and career growth can take off here.

If you’re the type who can shake a hand, ask good questions, follow a process, and genuinely enjoy helping people… you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Do (Your Day-to-Day)

As an Automotive Sales Associate, you’ll help customers find the right vehicle — while delivering a smooth, professional, no-pressure experience.

Responsibilities include:

• Welcome and assist guests in a friendly, professional way (first impressions matter!)

• Learn customer needs and match them with the right vehicle, trim, and features

• Perform vehicle walkarounds and demos with confidence and product knowledge

• Follow up with leads using phone, text, email, CRM tools, and social platforms

• Stay organized with appointments, pipeline updates, and daily prospecting

• Maintain professionalism and energy on the showroom floor every day

What We’re Looking For

We don’t need “pushy.” We need personable, motivated, and disciplined.

A great candidate is:

• Confident, competitive, and hungry to improve

• Friendly and polished — you can talk to anyone

• Coachable and open to feedback

• Reliable and consistent (we want professionals, not part-timers)

• Comfortable working weekends and flexible hours (this is retail!)

Experience is a plus — but not required.
If you’re the right person, we’ll train you.
