Pre-Owned Sales Director

Anderson Automotive - Honda in Hunt Valley / Buick-GMC in Hunt Valley / Buick-GMC in Abingdon, is seeking a dynamic pre-owned sales professional to help take our dealerships to the next level. We are looking for the right candidate to join our executive management team, reporting directly to the Dealer Principal, in a new (to us) role of Pre-Owned Sales Director.

In addition to a passion for the car business, successful candidates must have experience with used vehicle acquisition/disposition, used vehicle reconditioning/merchandising/pricing, used vehicle trend analysis, used vehicle inventory management, third-party listing site familiarity, deal desking experience, and sales management knowledge. The best candidates will bring an innovative approach to inventory acquisition, and a deep understanding of the value of a used car to the entire dealership. We are not looking for a departmental manager to work just inside their box. Anderson seeks to run our dealership as a cohesive team, and not a group of individual departmental silos. "Old school" managers and your antiquated thought processes need not apply.

Pay plan (commensurate with experience) will be tied to all front-end gross, including New and F&I, PLUS Internal Reconditioning Labor and Parts Sales.

This is a new position for our group, so the right candidate will help us build out the role and define your job description.

Some Responsibilities:

• Inventory Acquisition and Management Across Three Used Car Departments (currently 190 units, $6 Million NON-FLOOR PLANNED inventory, and looking to grow)
• Analysis of Third Party Listing Sites and Lead Generator Performance
• Training of Salespeople and Managers
• Involvement in Decision Making for all Aspects of Used Car Operation - inventory levels, pricing, reconditioning, software tools, etc.
