General Manager for Car Dealership

Truck Traders
Kyle, TX Full Time
POSTED ON 4/8/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/6/2026

Truck Traders is a growing independent used truck dealership in Kyle, TX. We specialize in late-model pickup trucks and operate on a 10-acre property with over 1,000 feet of highway frontage in one of the fastest growing corridors in central Texas. We are expanding and looking for a proven operator to take full ownership of store performance.

The Opportunity This is not a role for someone who needs to be managed. You will have full autonomy over every lever that drives store performance — inventory buying, pricing, reconditioning, deal structure, lender relationships, and sales staff development. If you know how to run a used truck operation and want to be paid aggressively for what you produce, this is the role for you.

What You'll Be Responsible For

  • Sourcing and purchasing inventory at auction — you are the primary buyer
  • Setting retail pricing and approving reconditioning on all units
  • Structuring retail, subprime, and BHPH deals from start to finish
  • Managing and growing a commissioned sales floor (5 salespeople)
  • Driving the store to 40 units per month at strong average gross per copy
  • Managing lender relationships including Westlake Financial and others
  • Running daily team meetings and weekly inventory advertising meetings
  • Overseeing all operations through DealerCenter DMS and CRM
  • Recruiting, hiring, and developing salespeople as needed

What We're Looking For

  • Proven track record managing an independent used car or truck dealership
  • Strong auction buying experience with a verifiable performance history
  • Proficiency structuring subprime deals through Westlake, UAC, and similar lenders
  • Experience managing and motivating a commission-based sales team
  • DealerCenter experience preferred
  • Self-directed and comfortable operating without daily oversight
  • Texas independent dealer experience strongly preferred
  • Truck/pickup market knowledge is a significant plus

Compensation Performance-based with no ceiling. Pay is structured around units retailed and total store gross, with additional bonuses tied to measurable performance metrics. Strong operators who produce strong results earn accordingly. For the right candidate, there is also potential for partnership growth within the company. Full details provided during the interview.

Why Truck Traders

  • 2.5 acres dedicated lot with 7.5 acres available for future development — room to grow into something significantly larger
  • Over 1,000 feet of highway frontage — exceptional visibility in one of the fastest growing corridors in central Texas
  • Focused inventory — trucks only, buyers already want what we sell
  • Owner is accessible and invested
  • Full operational autonomy for the right person
  • Kyle, TX — one of the fastest growing markets in central Texas
  • Partnership growth potential for the right candidate
