Nice To Haves

Leader of leaders. You know the difference between managing Reps and developing managers, and you've done both. You build bench strength, not dependence.
Excellent communicator. You speak and write with confidence, charisma, and competence, from a Rep in the lane to the executive team. You can turn a complex dataset into a clear story and a decision.
Strategic and analytical. You use data to set direction rather than just report on it. You're comfortable with performance metrics, root-cause analysis, and building a business case.
Love of listening. You listen with the intent to understand, not just reply, whether it's your team, a partner, or leadership.
Plays well with others. You build trust across Remarketing, Loss Mitigation, Operations, and external partners. We work together in order to win together.
Self-driven yet selfless. You manage a large, distributed operation independently, and your decisions are made for the betterment of Drivetime, not just your region or yourself.
Fantastic problem solver. You find the problem, and more importantly you find and implement the solution at scale.
Change leader. You can roll out new processes, tools, and expectations across multiple regions and get real adoption.
