About
I am a hard-working, confident and commercially minded professional looking for a new career opportunity, with a particular interest in car sales. I have worked in landscaping since 2012, including 6 years successfully running my own landscaping business. Alongside this, I have also been a business partner with my wife in our hair salon for the past 6 years.
Both businesses have given me extensive experience dealing directly with customers, understanding their requirements, preparing quotations and securing high-value sales. In landscaping, I regularly quoted and sold large, premium garden projects involving significant customer investment. I am confident discussing costs, building trust and turning enquiries into confirmed work.
I am reliable, self-motivated and keen to transfer my sales, business and customer service experience into the motor trade. I have always had a genuine passion for cars and have wanted to make the move into car sales for some time. I am proud of what I have achieved and the progression I have made within my previous career, particularly building and running my own business.
I now feel I have reached the right point to take on a new challenge and pursue a career I have always been interested in. I am excited to bring my experience in high-value sales, customer service and business ownership into the motor industry and build a successful long-term career in car sales.
