ABOUT US:
We don’t mean to brag… but we’re kind of a big deal! ;)
Curtis Cars is one of Northern Ireland’s leading Toyota dealerships, built on family values, customer trust, and a passion for all things automotive. With decades of experience in the industry, we’ve helped thousands of customers find their perfect car and keep it running smoothly.
And now, we’re about to take things to the next level!
We’re soon opening our newly renovated Toyota showroom, designed to offer a modern, welcoming space where customers can explore the latest Toyota models, experience hybrid innovation, and receive top-tier service.
And THAT is where you come in! We’re looking for talented individuals to join us on this exciting journey as we continue to grow, evolve, and deliver exceptional experiences to our customers.
We've got the leads...
We've got the product...
We just need you!
We're building a three-person in-house sales team who can connect with potential customers over the phone and in person to showcase our exciting new system. Your role will be to engage prospects, walk them through how it works, and seamlessly convert those demos into loyal customers—just like clockwork.
We've done the maths... and on target earnings for this role are £41,000+With NO CAP on commissions (more on this later!).
***Reasons Why We're an Amazing Place to Work***
1. No full weekends! We work Monday to Friday, plus just a half-day on Saturdays—giving you more time for yourself.
2. A great team atmosphere—we’re a friendly, fun, and supportive group of 35.
3. Exciting times ahead! With our newly renovated Toyota showroom opening soon, there's never been a better time to join us.
4. We value you! Enjoy competitive benefits, including holidays, Christmas bonuses, pensions, and more.
5. We love what we do. If you’re passionate about cars and great customer service, you’ll fit right in.
Is this the single GREATEST sales job in the entire WORLD?! Probably.... maybe... you tell me! ;)
PLUS: we actually help hundreds of people with their motoring needs and provide the vehicle they deserve for their families - and that feels soooooo good!
And here's why:We're not a start-up—we've been delivering exceptional service for over 41 years. What we do is help our customers find the perfect vehicle, and after all this time, we’re pretty great at it!
Your 'Hot List' of prospects includes literally hundreds of existing, paying customers who LOVE us and should all be using this system. So there's your first 100 sales, in the bag!*
*ok, not literally in the bag... you will need to talk to these people first, but it should be super simple really!
PLUS: You’ll have the support of our marketing efforts, working hard to generate interest and scheduled appointments with the right prospects—so you can focus on closing deals.
Our products are top-notch! They’re affordable, easy to showcase and for the right salesperson, a doddle to demo and sell!
That means that scavenging around for your next deal is probably a thing of the past.
Let's Talk Money:It's sales. So we know it's mostly about the moolah.That's why in addition to a base salary of £22,000 per year - you'll earn direct commission, with no limits or restrictions.
We work Monday - Saturday, so there are typically 25 working days in a month.If you did 3 demos per day...You'd likely close at least 1...Which is 25 sales per month...Or £1,200 in commission...Plus your base salary...So we'd expect you to be earning at least £3,200/month (£36,400/year) - with plenty of room for growth!
The Perfect Candidate Will Tick The Boxes Below:
You'll be a people person (and love talking)
You'll have tremendous confidence on the phone (and Zoom!)
