Automotive Sales Manager
About The Position
Gerry Lane Chevrolet, the #1 Chevrolet store in Baton Rouge for 40 years, is seeking a proven Automotive Sales Manager to lead their sales team. This role is for an experienced manager who can maintain the store's high volume and traffic, ensuring deals are bought and closed effectively. The ideal candidate will have a strong track record in automotive sales management, including hitting numbers, holding gross, and developing people.

- Someone who develops salespeople rather than just closing over them
- Strong CRM and process discipline
- Comfortable with the hours a manager's job requires, and steady under a busy Saturday
- Valid driver's license
Responsibilities
- Running the desk: structuring, closing, and holding gross on new and used deals
- Working the board and managing the floor through the day — appointment to delivery
- Training, coaching, and holding your salespeople accountable to a daily process
- Managing T.O.s and taking the tough ones yourself
- Working closely with F&I to protect deal structure and product penetration
- Owning your team's CRM discipline — follow-up, logging, and lead response times
- Reporting to management on daily and monthly performance
Benefits
- Aggressive pay plan built on volume and gross, with performance bonuses on top
- Health and dental plan
- 401(k) with company match
- Demo allowance
