Who Were Looking For

You understand how deals actually get done, where trust breaks down, and what it would take to fix it. Youre not looking for a lateral move — youre looking for the chance to do it right.

• 3-6 years of experience in automotive retail, used car marketplaces, dealerships, or automotive platforms.
• Strong understanding of vehicle buying and selling processes.
• Experience in insurance, financing, or related automotive services is preferred.
• Analytical mindset with experience managing business metrics.
• Strong stakeholder management and leadership skills.
