IS THIS YOU?
- You're a relationship-first sales professional who leads with honesty, earns trust through preparation and follow-through, and takes genuine pride in every guest experience you create
- You come from luxury hospitality, high-end retail, financial services, or another consultative guest-facing background -- or you have automotive sales experience and want to represent one of the world's most iconic brands in one of the Bay Area's most distinctive communities
- You want to build a real book of business in a close-knit, affluent market where the guests who trust you come back for life and send their neighbors to you
WHO WE ARE
Swickard Auto Group is a hospitality company that happens to sell and service cars. We believe the best guest experiences start with the best employee experiences. That's why we've grown to 40+ rooftops across the West Coast, Alaska, and Hawaii while maintaining a culture built on one simple idea: do right by people, every time.
Mercedes-Benz of Marin is an award-winning luxury dealership in San Rafael serving one of the most affluent and loyal communities in the Bay Area. Marin County buyers choose their brands and their consultants deliberately -- and when they find someone they trust, they return for every purchase and send their friends. The Sales Consultant who earns that trust here builds something rare: a career with lasting earning potential in a community that rewards integrity.

- Collaborate with finance and management to deliver a transparent, pressure-free purchase experience
- Meet monthly targets while maintaining strong guest satisfaction scores
- Stay current on Mercedes-Benz's full lineup, technology features, and growing EV and PHEV offerings
- Represent Mercedes-Benz of Marin and Swickard's hospitality standard in every guest interaction

- No automotive experience required -- paid Mercedes-Benz brand and product training provided from day one
- Proven success in luxury hospitality, high-end retail, financial services, real estate, or consultative sales -- backgrounds that transfer directly to a sophisticated Marin County buyer profile
- Relationship-first approach -- you listen before you present and earn trust before you ask for the sale
- Polished, professional presence -- Marin County guests are discerning and expect a consultant who matches their standard
- Self-motivated with a genuine drive to build a long-term book of business, not just close individual deals
- Comfortable with CRM tools and digital communication
- Valid driver's license with a clean driving record
