Peoria AZ Car Sales Staff

Our sales team is essential to our business model in more ways than selling cars. They are the face of our company. It is important for each sales team member to keep the customers’ best interests in mind and to be a positive representation of our company’s values.

Those who are best qualified for the sales staff are people with experience in business, especially sales. They must be professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. They must be willing to learn everything they can about the Kia line-up and be able to communicate it to their customers.

To be sure, you’ll know you are a good fit if you can maintain a "can-do" attitude in the face of any challenges.

Automotive Sales Managers

If you are already selling cars at another dealership, you may be thinking about management. Likewise, if you have a business degree or you have a long career in a related automotive field.

We don’t often have automotive sales manager jobs available, but if we do, you can bet we are looking for talented and knowledgeable salespeople who can manage a large staff. Obviously this position requires an in-depth knowledge of the Kia brand and the Earnhardt way. However, if you are ready to work hard and get up to speed on these things, you might still be the right fit.

Finance Department

The finance department is staffed by computer-savvy individuals who understand the intricacies of loans and leases. They must be able to work with lenders to find the financing that our customers need. This position requires a personality that can handle essential paperwork duties as well as they can handle customer service and number crunching.

Service Advisors and Parts Department Jobs

Obviously we must maintain a big staff to cover our six-day weekly service schedule. While our certified technicians are busy doing maintenance and repairs, our service advisors take care of customers.

Our parts department is kept busy by our service center, but it also must fulfill orders from the public. All of these jobs require smart, independent thinkers who know how to follow protocols and yet be flexible when the need arises.

Administrative and Entry-Level Positions

Our busy sales and service staff cannot do everything. To maintain our large inventory, there are positions ranging from receptionists and lot attendants to detailers and drivers.

We welcome qualified administrative applicants. It is always helpful to have people on staff with good computer skills and a great sense of organization!

Service Technician Jobs in Peoria AZ

Not only do we need highly qualified technicians, but we need the type of mechanics who are willing to learn more. We assist our staff in keeping up with changes in the automotive industry. This includes expanding their training and education.

Naturally most of our technicians are ASE certified, and many are highly experienced in car repair. They have a strong understanding of KIA brand vehicles as well as a general knowledge of all other automotive products.

Sometimes we hire technicians in training. We have to keep a staff for our tire center, auto glass service, our oil change express service and so forth. In other words, even if you aren’t ASE certified, there might be a place for you here.
