The posting

Automotive Sales Manager

Auffenberg of Carbondale — Carbondale, IL

Full-Time | Management

Auffenberg of Carbondale is looking for an experienced Automotive Sales Manager to join our leadership team.

We are looking for a hands-on manager who can help lead the day-to-day operation of our sales department. This position is ideal for someone who enjoys working deals, developing salespeople, solving problems, and taking ownership of results.

This is not a position for someone who wants to simply supervise the floor. We are looking for a working Sales Manager who can make decisions and help run the business.

What You'll Do

  • Desk and structure new and used vehicle deals
  • Work directly with salespeople to improve closing ratios and gross profit
  • Coach, train, motivate, and hold the sales team accountable
  • Assist with used vehicle appraisals
  • Monitor leads, appointments, follow-up, and showroom activity
  • Help manage daily sales activity and dealership processes
  • Work closely with F&I to maximize opportunities while maintaining a great customer experience
  • Handle customer questions and assist in closing difficult deals
  • Help maintain proper inventory focus and merchandising
  • Participate in sales meetings and performance reviews
  • Help create a positive, competitive, and accountable sales culture

What We're Looking For

Automotive management experience is strongly preferred.

The right candidate should be comfortable:

  • Desking deals independently
  • Structuring deals for both profitability and approval
  • Appraising trades
  • Coaching and developing salespeople
  • Working internet leads and appointments
  • Handling customers and closing deals
  • Managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced dealership
  • Holding people accountable while maintaining a positive work environment

Experience as a Sales Manager, Desk Manager, General Sales Manager, F&I Manager, or experienced automotive sales professional with leadership experience will be considered.

What We Offer

  • Competitive management compensation plan
  • Strong income potential based on performance
  • Established dealership and customer base
  • Experienced support team
  • Opportunity to have real input into the operation
  • Five-day work week
  • Professional dealership environment
  • Opportunity for long-term growth

The Person We're Looking For

We value ownership, urgency, accountability, and teamwork.

If you see a customer who needs help, you help them.

If a salesperson needs coaching, you coach them.

If a deal needs worked, you work it.

If there's a problem, you don't wait for someone else to solve it.

We're looking for someone who wants to be part of running a successful dealership—not simply hold a management title.

If you're an experienced automotive professional looking for your next opportunity, we'd like to have a confidential conversation.

Apply online with your resume and relevant automotive experience.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
