Full Job Description
Description

We are seeking experienced, highly motivated Sales Desk Managers who want to operate their own book of business while receiving dealership-provided leads, marketing support, lender access, and administrative assistance.

As a Sales Desk Manager, you will manage your own pipeline of dealership-generated leads while also developing your own customer base. You will be responsible for the complete sales process from initial customer contact through vehicle selection, structuring, lender approval, and deal closing

Our Finance Manager will handle final contracting, compliance documentation, funding, and customer signatures, allowing you to focus on sales production and approvals.

Each Sales Desk Manager will have dedicated support staff to assist with appointments, customer follow-up, and administrative tasks.

At Dena Motors, we believe in giving talented sales professionals the tools, support, and autonomy to maximize their income. Our unique model allows you to benefit from dealership-provided leads, marketing, inventory, lender relationships, and operational support.

If you're ready to control your income and build your own career within a dealership environment, we want to hear from you.
