Turn Opportunity Into Income. Build a Career That Grows With You.

Joe Lunghamer Chevrolet is expanding, and we’re looking for motivated, driven individuals who are ready to take their career and their income to the next level.

This isn’t your typical dealership role. We are building a team focused on professionalism, process, and delivering an elevated customer experience. If you’re someone who wants more than just a job and you’re willing to put in the work we’ll give you the tools, support, and opportunity to succeed.


What This Role Really Looks Like

This is a people-first, relationship-driven sales role. You’ll be working with customers who are actively shopping, guiding them through the process, and helping them make confident buying decisions.

Your day will include:

  • Connecting with customers in-store, online, and over the phone

  • Asking the right questions to understand needs and lifestyle

  • Presenting vehicles in a way that builds value not just price

  • Following up with leads (calls, texts, emails) to stay top of mind

  • Setting and confirming appointments

  • Working alongside leadership to structure and close deals

  • Building your own book of business and repeat/referral clients


What Makes This Opportunity Different

We provide:

  • Consistent traffic + strong lead flow (you will have opportunities)

  • Proven processes and scripts that actually convert

  • Hands-on training and support from leadership

  • A culture focused on accountability, growth, and results

  • A dealership actively investing in its people, systems, and future

If you’re coachable and driven, you will succeed here.


Compensation & Benefits
  • Uncapped earning potential – the harder you work, the more you make

  • Competitive commission-based pay plan

  • Bonus opportunities based on performance

  • Health, dental, vision, and 401(k) options (if applicable)

  • Paid training and ongoing development


Who We’re Looking For

You don’t need years of automotive experience we’re looking for the right mindset.

You’ll thrive here if you are:

  • Motivated and goal-oriented

  • Comfortable talking to and helping people

  • Coachable and open to learning

  • Professional in appearance and communication

  • Able to stay organized and follow through

  • Hungry to earn more and grow

Sales experience is a plus, but not required. Work ethic is everything.


Why Joe Lunghamer Chevrolet

We’re not just another dealership we’re building something intentional.

Our focus is on:

  • Creating a better buying experience for our customers

  • Building a stronger, more professional sales team

  • Helping our employees grow personally and financially
