Why Consider This Position?

We are giving you a lot of information in this job description so that you can figure out if you'd really like to work at Kia Mall of Georgia. We have a commitment to transparency and offer a “no surprises experience” throughout the interview and hiring process.

• We believe our employees are our greatest asset. As such, we treat all employees with respect and appreciation for their contributions to the company. We believe not only in providing ongoing training but also rewarding outstanding effort and results through bonus and commission programs (see below).
• We practice and preach sound sales practices. You will learn and grow as an individual while working at the dealership
• It is a well-established, privately owned and family operated dealership with excellent benefits and competitive pay
• Our pay and benefits will be somewhere between good and great, depending on what you are qualified for and how hard you want to make money (see below for specifics)
• The dealership has been in the business for over 15 years and maintained 75% retention of employees over 5 years (avg. retention is under 50%)
• Our culture is like family (both business and personal). We treat each other with great respect, and we value their input.
• What is unique at this dealership? Our relationships and open-door policy set us apart. We respect everyone’s opinion and ideas.
• A typical workday consists of training; working our customer lists to make calls, texts and emails; talking to people that show up at the dealership, as well as internet leads that come through our sales CRM; work the service lane with customers that might want to trade in their car; selling and up-selling
• We value and cultivate enjoyable working relationships among team members
• We emphasize work/life balance and adopt policies that make sure our people don’t get burnt out. We work 5 days a week in 2 shifts (so you can make a lot of money). We have minimum salesperson coverage requirements, but we can be flexible.
• We give money to all our local school systems, as well as North Georgia College and State University
• You are passionate about cars and trucks (basically anything that moves)
• You can make friends in 2 ½ minutes (not a second more…)
• You love interacting and talking with new people
• You like working independently but can contribute to a team as needed
• Lots of IFs: If you can answer ‘yes’ to some of the questions above, and if you like what you just read, and if you apply, we will help you every step of the way to be as successful as you can

Requirements:

• Ability to drive a manual transmission vehicle.
• Automotive sales experience
• 1 years automotive sales experience required

What We Offer:

• Successfully completion assessment/personality test, drug screen, and background check (It sounds hard, but it is easy!)
• Valid driver’s license (somewhere in the US, but Canada and Mexico are OK)
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment (or working slowly very quickly)
• Excellent communication skills (i.e. if you can talk someone’s ear off)
• Friendliness, enthusiasm, reliability, with a positive “team-player” attitude
• At least a year in a customer facing or hospitality role

Pay: Did you know our average sales consultants can make $50-$100k per year while top performers can make $100k plus! We are happy to talk about money as one of the first parts of our conversation so we don’t waste each other’s time if we aren’t in the ballpark. We will look at individuals making more money and our offer will take into consideration your salary history, experience, references, and a skills assessment. Everyone wants to be paid as much as possible, but the economics of business usually require that we meet in the middle

Benefits: Medical / Dental / Vision, PTO: up to 2 weeks’ vacation time (1 for the first year), 5 paid holidays, STD/LTD, Life Insurance, etc.

• Employee discounts on vehicle purchase, parts, and service
• No cost, higher education with Strayer University. We've partnered with Strayer University to create the Degrees at Work program, which helps pay our employees' tuition costs for higher education
• We have comprehensive training programs at all levels and in all departments
• Christmas bonuses
• We pay our employees for Retail referrals
• Advancement opportunities and a chance to grow and advance within the organization
• One of the best things about working for us is that we really value work/family balance. We also have company functions during the year
