  • Drive performance across key metrics:
    • Per Vehicle Retail (PVR)
    • Product penetration (VSC, GAP, maintenance)
    • Menu utilization and compliance
    • Funding speed and deal accuracy
  • Ensure all deals meet state, federal, and lender compliance standards
  • Partner closely with Sales Managers to ensure clean, efficient deal flow
  • Deliver a seamless, professional experience that builds trust and repeat business

  • You follow a consistent menu process-every deal, every time
  • You balance profit and customer trust
