Seattle, WA | Mercedes-Benz | Sprinter | Commercial vehicle | Fleet | B2B | Account management | Commercial sales | Van sales | Pacific Northwest | King County | Seattle metro | Veterans encouraged to apply | $50,000 - $120,000+ OTE
IS THIS YOU?
• You're a relationship-driven sales professional who earns trust through genuine curiosity, honest guidance, and consistent follow-through - whether you're working with an owner-operator buying their first Sprinter or a fleet manager sourcing multiple units, the client comes back because of how you handled the last conversation
• You come from automotive sales, B2B account management, commercial sales, or another consultative background - and you understand that Sprinter buyers range from adventurers building out a camper van to contractors outfitting a work fleet, and the right advisor speaks to both
• You want to build a diverse, high-earning book of business at a Seattle Mercedes-Benz store where the Sprinter's broad market appeal - personal, commercial, and fleet - gives a motivated account manager more doors to knock on than most automotive roles ever offer
WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Develop and manage a mixed portfolio of personal use and commercial Sprinter accounts - owner-operators, small businesses, fleet buyers, and individual adventure or lifestyle clients across the Seattle metro
• Prospect for new commercial and personal Sprinter business through outreach, referrals, industry networking, and inbound lead follow-up - this role rewards the account manager who actively builds pipeline alongside managing existing relationships
• Guide clients through Sprinter configuration options - wheelbase, roof height, powertrain, seating, cargo, and upfit packages - matching the vehicle's capabilities to each buyer's specific personal or commercial use case
• Manage the full sales cycle from first contact through delivery - needs assessment, vehicle selection, upfit coordination where applicable, financing, and post-delivery follow-up
• Build and maintain a CRM-tracked client book - consistent follow-up, fleet renewal timelines, and proactive outreach keep accounts active and referrals coming
• Develop commercial account relationships with businesses, fleet operators, and organizations across the Seattle market that have ongoing or recurring Sprinter needs
• Stay current on Sprinter configurations, Mercedes-Benz commercial incentive programs, personal use financing options, and competitive alternatives
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• Sales or account management experience required - automotive, commercial vehicle, B2B, or consultative sales backgrounds all transferable. Sprinter or commercial van experience a meaningful advantage
• Comfortable selling to both personal and commercial buyers - the Sprinter's buyer base is genuinely diverse and the account manager who can move between a lifestyle buyer and a fleet manager in the same day is the one who builds the strongest book
• Relationship-first approach - you follow up without being reminded, your clients feel genuinely served rather than sold to, and your repeat business reflects it
• Self-directed prospector - inbound leads help, but the account manager who builds their own pipeline through outreach and referrals earns at the top of the range
• Genuine curiosity about the Sprinter platform - personal use buyers want to talk about their build; commercial buyers want to talk about payload and upfit. You engage both conversations with real interest
• CRM discipline - your pipeline and client records stay current because your habits make it so
• Valid driver's license with a clean driving record
WHAT WE OFFER
• OTE of $50,000 - $120,000+/yr - a mixed personal and commercial Sprinter book rewards account managers who develop both sides of the market consistently
• Paid Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and commercial vehicle product training
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Life insurance and supplemental coverage options
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• Career growth into CV sales management and commercial vehicle leadership roles within Swickard's expanding network
• Employee vehicle purchase and service discounts
WHY MERCEDES-BENZ OF SEATTLE - COMMERCIAL VEHICLES
• Seattle's buyer base for the Sprinter is one of the most diverse in the Pacific Northwest - outdoor enthusiasts, tradespeople, healthcare organizations, last-mile operators, tech campuses, and government agencies all drive meaningful Sprinter demand in this market, and a single account manager can develop relationships across all of them
• The Sprinter's personal use market is growing. Adventure van builds, mobile businesses, and lifestyle conversions are a real and expanding segment in a Pacific Northwest market full of buyers who use their vehicles as tools and as extensions of how they live - that's a different conversation than fleet sales and a genuinely compelling one for the right account manager
• Commercial accounts are repeat buyers. The business owner who trusts you for the first Sprinter calls you for the second, third, and the ones their contacts need - a well-managed commercial book compounds over time in a way retail sales rarely does
• Swickard is one of the fastest-growing dealer groups in the country - ranked Top 5 in North America for reputation in the automotive industry
• Our HEART values - Honor, Engage, Anticipate, Respond, Thank - apply to every client relationship, personal or commercial
If you're a relationship-driven sales professional ready to build a diverse Sprinter account portfolio across personal and commercial buyers in one of the Pacific Northwest's most active van markets - apply.
