Full job descriptionDo you have automotive aftersales experience ? This role is a
rare opportunity to help build the UK aftersales operation for a
brand at the very beginning of its journey. You’ll have genuine
influence over dealer performance, customer experience and the
standards that define the brand in the UK. Rather than
maintaining an established network, you’ll help shape its
culture, processes and long-term success, working closely with
senior leadership in a business where good ideas are recognised
and individuals can make a visible impact."
