SoManyBikes are recruiting

 CONTACT DETAILS: recruitment@somanybikes.com

We are looking to recruit a number of Sales Executives to bolster our current team. It's probably a bit obvious but the role involves being a salesman of used motorcycles and motorcycle finance.

We are a rapidly growing independent bike dealer, (one of UK's the largest I might add!) we would like outgoing and friendly people to join our tightly knit family.

This is the perfect career for those of you interested in motorbikes (or mills!) as you will be joining the team in our Manchester showroom, based inside a classic Northern cotton mill, which has over £1,000,000 of motorcycling goodness spread across 10,000ft2. And this will be your office...

Whether you have past experience or not, it does not matter, we will provide you with all the necessary training to make you a top-notch motorcycle salesperson. We do however appreciate the skill set necessary for this role so previous experience would be advantageous. There's no need to worry, you won't be sitting around twiddling your thumbs! There are customers to greet, people to ring, and test rides to organise. This is just a small variety of the tasks at hand.

We offer uncapped earnings to our sales members with average yearly salaries hitting between £25,000 and £35,000. There is however nothing here stopping you, if you happen to be a bike selling god, from achieving £45,000+! All we ask from you is that you have a positive and polite attitude, good communication skills, some computer literacy and the ability to work happily within a team.

If you are interested just E-mail your CV and covering letter to recruitment@somanybikes.com

We look forward to hearing from you!
