Job Description

You've Been Running the Floor. You Just Don't Have the Title Yet. Compensation: Competitive base + performance-driven comp that rewards results, not tenure Let's Talk About Where You Are Right Now You're at a dealership. You're the one the owner leans on when things aren't working. When the sales floor is soft, you're the one pulling people into the office, going through the numbers, and figuring out what's broken. When a salesperson is about to lose a deal, you're stepping in and closing it yourself. When the managers around you are coasting, you're picking up the slack — and training their people for them. You've built things. You've taken a team that was underperforming and turned it around. You've hired, you've trained, you've fired when you needed to. You know what a real sales process looks like and you know how to hold people to one. But you're stuck. Maybe you're a Finance Director who's been running circles around the GSM and everyone knows it. Maybe you're a Sales Manager at a store that won't give you the keys. Maybe you've been told "you're not ready" by someone who hasn't had a new idea since 2011. If that's you, keep reading. Here's the Opportunity SVG Motors is a seven-location dealership group across Ohio. Washington Court House sits on two of the strongest franchises in the business — Toyota and Chevrolet. Not niche brands. Not lot fillers. Two franchises that customers actively seek out, in a market that's growing. And we're nowhere near where we should be. The goal is simple: double sales. That's not a slogan on a whiteboard. That's the objective, and we need someone on the ground who can make it happen. This is a General Sales Manager role. You don't need to have held that title before. What you need is the ability to close, train, build a team, and run a sales operation like the number next to your name actually matters to you. What You'll Actually Do Every Day Close deals. You're not a tower manager. You're on the floor, in the showroom, at the desk with customers. When a salesperson gets stuck — on the commitment, the trade, the objection, the product presentation — you step in face-to-face and get it done. You're the best closer in the building and everyone knows it. Train your people. Not a Monday morning meeting where everyone zones out. Real, daily skill development. Scripts, role plays, objection handling, F&I product presentations — you're drilling your team until they can run the full transaction from greeting to delivery without flinching. You don't just show them how it's done. You break down the mechanics so they can do it themselves. Build the team. Recruit the right people. Get rid of the wrong ones. Set expectations on day one and hold them every day after. You're not managing a roster — you're building a culture where accountability is the standard, not the exception. The goal is to double this store's output, and that starts with who's on the floor. Drive the numbers. Volume, gross, backend penetration, CSI — these aren't reports you glance at. They're the scoreboard you manage to daily. If something's slipping, you're diagnosing it before anyone has to tell you. You run structured one-on-ones with every salesperson. Real data. Real goals. Real follow-through. Develop your managers. You're coaching your desk managers and F&I people to operate at a higher level — not just technically, but in how they lead, how they hold the line, and how they develop the people under them. Who This Is For You've been in automotive. You know the business from the inside — not from a textbook. You've closed customers recently, face-to-face, not from behind a computer. You can teach — not just "watch me do it," but actually break down a close, an objection response, or a product presentation in a way that makes someone else better. You've managed salespeople and held them accountable to numbers and behaviors. You understand deal structure. You understand gross. You've built something before — a team, a department, a culture — and you can point to the results. You're hungry for the shot to run the floor at a store with real franchise power and room to grow. Who This Isn't For Tower managers who haven't closed a customer in the showroom in years. "Leaders" who got the title because they outlasted everyone else. Managers who haven't recruited a quality salesperson in years because they just keep recycling the same warm bodies from the dealer down the street. People who think training means forwarding a motivational YouTube video to the group chat. If your management style is "hope the month works out," keep scrolling. Why This Store. Why Now. Toyota and Chevrolet. Two of the most sought-after franchises in the country, sitting in a market with real growth happening around it. The product is there. The demand is there. The upside is massive. What's missing is the right person on the floor who can recruit, train, close, and lead a team that performs at the level these franchises deserve. If you've been waiting for someone to give you the shot — this is it. Stop waiting for the guy above you to retire. Come double a store. SVG Motors — 7 locations across Ohio representing Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, RAM, GMC, Chevrolet, and Toyota. We are an equal opportunity employer.
