Car Sales Team
A car sales person is someone who understands the value of customer service. They are intelligent and friendly, but they aren’t pushy or demanding. These days they may spend as much time at a computer as they do standing on the showroom floor.
A good prospect is someone who wants to learn everything they can about effective car sales and the specific sales process at our store. Furthermore, they should be someone who is interested in the Ford lineup. They want to learn the models, know the safety records, keep up with the awards, and be able to answer the most unusual questions that a shopper could pose.
Goodyear Automotive Sales Managers
As the savviest of the sales staff, the automotive sales managers must know the ins and outs of a new car dealership. They’ve got to understand how to manage the sales staff, and they’ve got to remain open to addressing the concerns of customers. Automotive sales manager jobs in Goodyear are often available. When they are, we’ll be looking for someone with sales experience, preferably in car retail sales.
Finance Department
When it comes to car financing, our dealership is always looking for smart people with a background in finance, car finance, or banking. Loans and leases aren’t always easy to understand, and we need staff who know how to find the deals and how to explain the terms to our customers.
Service Advisors
When customers need repairs or maintenance, we assign them a service advisor. This is their first and sometimes only contact with our staff. The position provides a liaison between customers and mechanics. It helps ensure that drivers are fully on board with the repair process. An individual sales and customer service background are good attributes for this position. Even better, we look for a person who has a basic understanding of car repair and is willing to learn more.
Administrative and Entry Level Positions
From delivery drivers to administrators, there may be a job that doesn’t fall neatly into a category. If you are hoping there is this type of job for you, we encourage you to apply and tell us what you are interested in doing. This is especially true for first-time job seekers who are wondering if an entry level job can get them in the door.
Automotive Technician Jobs in Goodyear
Rodeo Ford couldn’t thrive without a team of experienced automotive mechanics. We have a large service department with many bays. We also have a big customer base. These facts add up to the need for a large, dedicated group of experts for repair and maintenance.
We stay busy with cars and SUVs, but it’s the trucks that are essential to our business model. We need mechanics who are trained in light duty and heavy duty engines. They should be ready to tackle the big jobs required by a diesel powertrain or a four-wheel drivetrain.
In addition, we need trainees who are ready to learn. The biggest assets are intelligence, attention to detail, and a willingness to follow protocols.
We are always looking for Ford-certified mechanics as well as ASE-certified technicians. In addition, we are interested in technicians with other brand specialities, since we work on all makes and models.
Whether you are a seasoned pro or just starting out, we encourage you to apply, even if there isn’t a job posted. To see what’s available now, click here.
