Premium Direct Vehicle Import Sales
Geelong / Melbourne - Hybrid & Remote Full-Time
View Talent is partnering with an established automotive business that is expanding its direct-to-consumer vehicle import operation in Australia. Our client is seeking a highly motivated, detail-oriented Salesperson to join the team.
This is a unique role selling vehicles eligible for import into Australia, sourced directly from Japan - from premium, high-value vehicles through to a range of more affordable options. With the broader team based internationally, you'll work with a high degree of autonomy and trust, guiding a high-end, cash-ready clientele through a specialised sales cycle.
About the Role
- Direct sales correspondence - respond promptly to enquiries and nurture leads over days, weeks and sometimes months, maintaining a confident, objective and professional rapport so clients know they're in skilled, trusted hands.
- Pipeline management - use CRM software to track leads, schedule follow-up calls and make sure no chance slips through the cracks.
- Vehicle sourcing - act on the customer's behalf to purchase vehicles directly from wholesale auctions in Japan, assessing condition and quality and staying across current import regulations.
- Pricing & compliance - maintain an accurate, up-to-date price list of Japanese vehicles eligible for import under current regulations.
- Post-sale logistics - oversee the 2-3 month post-sale process, keeping customers updated as their vehicle moves smoothly and safely from Japan to Australia.
- Marketing support - assist with the marketing and digital promotion of available vehicles to attract the right buyers and keep the pipeline flowing.
About You
- 2-3 years' direct sales experience (retail or B2B), ideally within the new or used automotive industry
- Proven ability to close high-end, cash-paying buyers
- Experience using a modern CRM
- Strong attention to detail, with a track record of keeping accurate records, managing task and client lists, and executing on time
- Solid understanding of the Australian used car market, plus a real interest in Japanese automotive culture (JDM, classic and luxury vehicles)
- Sound mechanical and functional vehicle knowledge - able to assess the condition of a used car and explain mechanical, cosmetic and functional details to clients
- Highly responsible and self-directed, comfortable managing your own day-to-day while joining daily remote catch-ups with management
Desirable
- Previous experience in the vehicle import/export sector
- Japanese language skills (welcome, but not required)
What's on Offer
- Full-time role with hybrid/remote flexibility across Geelong and Melbourne
- A high level of autonomy and trust within a small, internationally based team
- The opportunity to help grow a specialist import business working with premium JDM, classic and luxury vehicles
