Job Description
Chinese EV Brand Specialist / Sales Consultant
Join the Future of Automotive Retail with Bartons
Bartons Motor Group is growing its EV business — and we're looking for an experienced automotive sales professional who understands the Chinese EV market and knows how to turn customer interest into great automotive experiences.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Chinese-manufactured EV Brand Specialist / Sales Consultant to join one of Queensland's most progressive and established automotive groups.
If you have a strong background in automotive sales, a genuine passion for electric vehicles, and the confidence to work with customers exploring new and emerging Chinese automotive brands, we want to hear from you.
Chinese language skills are highly regarded.
Why Bartons?
For more than 80 years, Bartons has been a proud part of Queensland's automotive industry and Brisbane's Bayside community.
Today, we retail more than 800 vehicles every month across 18 leading brands, including a growing portfolio of Chinese-manufactured brands and EV products.
Our brands include Mitsubishi, Nissan, Hyundai, LDV, LDV RV, Subaru, MG, IM, Chery, Farizon, Peugeot, Renault, GAC, Foton and GWM, as well as a strong used vehicle operation.
This is an opportunity to join a group that is actively embracing the next generation of automotive retail.
What you can expect at Bartons
Strong earning potential – competitive base salary + uncapped commission and bonus opportunities
Be part of the EV transition – work with some of the fastest-growing automotive brands and technologies in the market
Career progression – genuine opportunities across a growing multi-brand automotive group
Established reputation – more than 80 years of automotive experience and a strong local customer base
Training & development – ongoing product, sales and professional development
Supportive culture – high-performing, professional and team-focused
Employee benefits – rewards, discounts and EAP support
Strong enquiry and quality stock – the opportunity to build a substantial customer pipeline
About the Role
As a Chinese EV Brand Specialist / Sales Consultant, you will become a trusted product expert and customer consultant for our growing range of Chinese-manufactured vehicles and EVs.
You won't simply be selling cars.




You'll be helping customers understand a rapidly changing automotive landscape — from EV technology, charging and range through to advanced safety, connectivity and driver‐assistance technology.
Your responsibilities will include
Managing new vehicle enquiries from initial contact through to delivery
Building strong relationships with customers and understanding their individual needs
Becoming an expert across your allocated Chinese EV brand and product range
Confidently explaining EV technology, charging, range, battery technology and vehicle features
Conducting professional vehicle demonstrations and test drives
Identifying the right vehicle and ownership solution for each customer
Managing leads, follow‐ups and your sales pipeline
Negotiating and closing vehicle sales
Working closely with finance, management and delivery teams to provide a seamless customer experience
Maintaining strong product knowledge as recent models and technologies are introduced
Generating repeat and referral business
Achieving and exceeding monthly sales and customer satisfaction targets
Representing the Bartons brand professionally at all times
About You
We're looking for an experienced automotive sales professional who understands that EV customers often need more education, guidance and confidence than traditional vehicle buyers.
You will ideally have:
Previous automotive new vehicle sales experience
Experience selling EVs, hybrid vehicles or Chinese‐manufactured automotive brands
A proven track record of achieving sales targets
Strong product presentation and demonstration skills
Excellent communication, negotiation and closing skills
The ability to explain complex technology in a straightforward, customer-friendly way
A genuine interest in EVs, automotive technology and emerging vehicle brands
Strong follow-up and CRM discipline
A professional presentation and customer-first approach
The confidence to engage with a diverse range of customers
A strong team mentality and positive attitude
A current unrestricted Australian driver's licence




The right to work in Australia
Chinese language skills highly regarded
The ability to communicate confidently in Mandarin and/or Cantonese will be highly regarded.
This capability will allow you to build strong relationships with an increasingly diverse customer base and provide an exceptional level of service to customers who prefer to communicate in Chinese.
Why This Role Is Different
The automotive market is changing rapidly.
Chinese automotive manufacturers are becoming a major force in the Australian market, particularly in electric vehicles, advanced technology and value-driven new vehicle products.
At Bartons, we're not waiting for the future, we're building our business to match the future of automotive.
This role is ideal for someone who wants to establish themselves as a specialist in one of the fastest-growing areas of the automotive industry, rather than simply working as a traditional vehicle salesperson.
You'll have the opportunity to develop deep product knowledge, build your own customer following and become a genuine EV specialist within one of Queensland's most established automotive groups.
