Sales Executive – Vehicle Sales

Out and About Campers \| Henfield, Sussex
Full\-time \| 5 days per week, including Saturday \& Sunday

Out and About Campers is looking for a confident, personable and proactive Sales Executive to join our team, selling our premium bespoke and ready\-to\-drive campervans.

This is a hands\-on sales role for someone who enjoys speaking to people, picking up the phone, building relationships and turning genuine interest into sales.

Our customers are making a significant and exciting purchase, so we're not looking for overly formal or scripted selling. You'll need strong sales instincts combined with a natural, human approach – understanding what customers want, building their confidence and keeping the sale moving.

The Role

You'll manage your own sales pipeline from initial enquiry through to order, including:

  • Responding quickly to new enquiries and proactively calling leads.

  • Understanding customers' requirements, budget, timescales and intended use.

  • Selling both bespoke campervan conversions and ready\-to\-drive campers.

  • Consistently following up and nurturing prospects – including customers who may take several months to make their decision.

  • Booking and conducting showroom appointments and campervan demonstrations.

  • Preparing and following up quotations.

  • Working towards individual and company sales targets.

  • Maintaining accurate opportunities, activities and next actions within our Odoo CRM.

  • Keeping customers informed throughout the sales and ordering process.
We're looking for someone who understands the difference between simply following up and genuinely nurturing a sale. You'll need to remember your customers, understand where they are in their decision and actively look for opportunities to move conversations forward.

Shows \& Events

Shows are an important part of our sales strategy, with around 15 events booked each year across the UK.

You'll regularly represent Out and About Campers at campervan, motorhome and outdoor leisure shows – speaking to prospective customers, demonstrating our vehicles, capturing sales opportunities and following up leads afterwards.

Some events will require travel, changes to your normal working pattern and occasional overnight stays.

Working Pattern \& Commission

Saturday and Sunday are regular working days for this role.

You'll work 5 days per week, with two regular days off during the week. Tuesday and Wednesday are preferred, although this is open to discussion.

Applicants should therefore be comfortable with weekend working as their normal working pattern, as well as additional flexibility for exhibitions, open days and company events.

The rate of pay is a base salary \+ commission. Commission is rewarded per conversion sold \+ 7\.5% of the margin of each vehicle sold.

About You

Ideally, we are looking for a candidate with previous vehicles sales experience but more interested in finding someone who is:

  • Confident, personable and naturally good with customers.

  • Proactive and comfortable picking up the phone.

  • Commercially minded and motivated by achieving sales.

  • Persistent without being pushy.

  • Able to build rapport and understand what a customer genuinely needs.

  • Organised and capable of managing multiple opportunities and follow\-ups.

  • Comfortable discussing high\-value purchases.

  • Able to take ownership of their own sales pipeline.

  • Happy working weekends and travelling for shows.
Previous experience in sales, automotive, leisure vehicles, hospitality, luxury retail or another high\-value customer\-facing environment would be advantageous, but attitude, communication style and sales ability are more important to us than industry experience.
