About this role

Experienced Automotive Sales Consultant | Germain Ford of Columbus

Ford Sells Itself. Your Job Is to Sell More of It.

You already know how this works. You know the process, the paperwork, the pipeline. You know how to read a customer at the door and close before they leave. What you might not have — yet — is a store that's actually set up to let you earn what you're worth.

Germain Ford of Columbus is looking for a proven automotive sales professional who's ready to plug into one of the strongest brands in the business and take their income somewhere it's never been.


Why Experienced Sellers Choose Germain Ford

  • Ford is the #1 truck brand in America — F-Series sells itself, and that means more traffic, more trust, and more deals
  • High-volume dealership — more ups, more opportunities, more commission
  • Consistent, high-quality internet leads delivered to you — spend less time cold-prospecting, more time in front of buyers
  • Deep, competitive inventory across trucks, SUVs, EVs, and performance — something for every customer
  • A management team that knows the business and is invested in your success — not just the numbers
  • Merit-based path to Sales Manager and beyond — performance gets noticed and rewarded here
  • A culture that gets out of the way of top producers — we want you winning, not fighting the system

What You'll Do

  • Own the full sales cycle — from first handshake to delivery and post-sale follow-up
  • Use your experience to read customers, handle objections, and close efficiently
  • Build and grow a referral and repeat customer pipeline that pays dividends for years
  • Work internet leads and inbound inquiries fast and professionally
  • Collaborate with F&I and management to structure deals that work for everyone
  • Represent the Germain name with integrity, professionalism, and a customer-first approach

What You'll Earn

$60,000 – $150,000+ annually

Our top performers consistently exceed this range. Commission + bonuses + monthly performance incentives — your effort drives your paycheck, full stop.
