About the role

Infiniti of Sarasota is looking for an automotive sales professional who will establish positive relationships with our valued clients and treat them with honesty and respect. If you've ever been turned off by automotive companies who seem like they'll do and say anything to take people's money, experience the difference of working for a local, family-owned and operated organization who cares about their community. Previous auto sales experience is preferred, especially new cars and/or luxury vehicles, but not required. We care more about your drive, your attitude, and your willingness to learn than your work experience.
