Tire Sales Specialist (Santa Clara, CA)

We’re Dealer Tire, a family-owned, international distributor of tires and parts established in 1918 in Cleveland, OH. We’re laser focused on helping the world’s largest and most trusted auto manufacturers grow their tire business—in fact, we’ve sold more than 60 million tires to date. We’re a thriving company, and we’re looking for driven individuals to join our team.

About the role

Are you a top-performing sales professional in a customer-facing, goal-driven environment like wireless, big-box electronics, or membership sales? Dealer Tire offers a unique opportunity to take your sales skills into a role with:

• Stronger earning potential

Why This Role Stands Out

You already succeed at:

• Connecting with customers quickly

Responsibilities

After a fully paid training program, you will:

• Engage customers and sell tires on the service drive
• Perform quick visual inspections
• Identify needs and confidently recommend solutions
• Provide pricing and close sales
• Build relationships with customers and dealership teams

Requirements
