Automotive Parts Sales Representative
Full-Time | D&M Auto Recycling | Lumby, BC
D&M Auto Recycling is looking for a driven and highly organized salesperson to join our automotive parts sales team.
This is a busy, high-pressure sales environment with a constant flow of calls, quotes, follow-ups and competing priorities. We need someone who can stay calm under pressure, manage their own workload and keep pushing sales forward without needing to be continually directed.
This is not simply an order-taking position. While we receive plenty of incoming calls, successful salespeople at D&M actively follow up on quotes, build customer relationships, identify new opportunities and make outgoing calls when business slows down.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Answering incoming sales calls and helping customers find the correct automotive parts
- Turning inquiries and quotes into completed sales
- Following up consistently on open quotes and previous customer requests
- Making outgoing sales calls and participating in targeted sales pushes
- Building long-term relationships with repair shops, rebuilders and other repeat customers
- Managing multiple active sales, quotes and customer requests at the same time
- Keeping accurate notes and records in our inventory and sales systems
- Working closely with our inventory, production and shipping teams
- Taking ownership of your sales performance and customer relationships
What We’re Looking For
- Highly self-motivated and comfortable working independently
- Able to perform well in a fast-paced, high-stress environment
- Strong organization and time-management skills
- A natural salesperson who looks for opportunities instead of waiting for the phone to ring
- Comfortable making outgoing calls, following up and asking for the sale
- Strong communication and customer service skills
- Able to prioritize competing demands without losing track of customers
- Comfortable learning and using computer-based inventory and sales systems
- Reliable, accountable and able to work well as part of a larger team
- Good working knowledge of cars, trucks and automotive parts
Previous sales or automotive experience is a strong asset. We are willing to train the right candidate, but they must bring the motivation, organization and desire to sell.
Compensation and Benefits
- Full-time, year-round employment
- Starting wage of $22 per hour
- Uncapped commission based on individual sales performance after training
- Strong salespeople have the opportunity to earn a significant amount beyond their base wage
- Extended health and dental benefits
- Additional coverage for services such as massage therapy and chiropractic care
- Staff lunches, BBQs, holiday events and other company activities
D&M has been part of the community for decades, and many members of our team have been with us for more than ten years. We work hard, move quickly and take pride in finding solutions for our customers.
If you are organized, competitive, comfortable under pressure and motivated to create sales rather than simply process orders, we’d like to hear from you.
Please apply with your résumé and a short introduction telling us about your automotive knowledge, sales experience and what makes you successful in a sales environment.
