About the role

Mercedes-Benz of Watford is recruiting a Business Manager (Sales Led / Customer Facing) to join our high performing retail team.

This is a hands on sales leadership role. The successful candidate will spend the vast majority of their time directly with customers, leading from the front by selling Finance & Insurance products at an elite level. This role sits at the heart of the sales floor and is integral to vehicle deliveries, customer experience and commercial performance.

As a Mercedes-Benz Business Manager, you will be customer facing on almost every deal, structuring and presenting finance solutions, selling value added products, and ensuring every customer fully understands their options in a clear, compliant and engaging way.

While there is an element of coaching and oversight of the Sales Executive team, this is sales focused people leadership, not operational management. You will influence performance by demonstrating best in class selling behaviours, objection handling, and conversion techniques — not by analysing spreadsheets or producing reports.

This is not a back office, accounting, credit control, financial analysis, or business reporting role.

Business Managers work flexible retail hours, including weekends, to ensure we deliver outstanding customer experience at every point of the sales journey.

About you

This role is designed for experienced, high performing automotive sales professionals who want to progress their career by selling and leading from the front.

You must come from a customer facing retail sales background, ideally as a:

Top performing Sales Executive

Retail Business Manager

You will:

Be a proven closer with a strong track record in face to face sales

Be highly confident presenting finance and insurance products directly to customers

Thrive on time pressured retail environments and live sales situations

Coach Sales Executives through observation, example, and real time feedback on deals

Take pride in delivering strong finance penetration, add on performance and customer satisfaction

A working understanding of financial products is essential, but this role is about selling them ethically and effectively, not analysing them.

Why Sytner?

Sytner Group are delighted to provide an industry-leading benefits package.

We are passionate about continuous improvement and building an environment where everyone feels valued, appreciated and able to reach their full potential.
