Job Description

The Opportunity

Since 1912, the Sunset Ford family has been a staple of the St. Louis community. We didn’t get here by just "moving metal"—we got here by building relationships. We are looking for a high-energy, driven Automotive Sales Consultant to join our award-winning team.

If you’re tired of the "corporate" dealership grind and want to work for a family-owned business where your name actually matters, this is your spot. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a retail rockstar looking to change gears, we provide the training and the inventory to help you succeed.

What You’ll Do

  • Be the Expert: Guide customers through the entire car-buying process, from the first "just looking" to the final handshake.

  • Master the Product: Stay up-to-date on Ford’s latest tech, towing capabilities, fuel economy, trim levels, performance specs, safety, etc.

  • Build Your Brand: Use social media, phone, and email to maintain a robust pipeline and follow up with your "sold" customers (your future referrals!).

  • Deliver Excellence: Ensure every customer leaves Sunset Ford feeling like they just received a premium experience.

What You Bring to the Table

  • The "It" Factor: You’re outgoing, persuasive, and genuinely enjoy talking to people.

  • Resilience: You know that "no" is just a step toward a "yes."

  • Tech Savvy: You’re comfortable using CRM software and digital tools to manage your day.

  • Integrity: You believe in doing business the right way—honestly and transparently.

  • The Basics: A valid driver’s license and a clean driving record are must-haves.

The Perks

  • Aggressive Commission Structure: Competitive pay with high earning potential and performance bonuses.

  • Family First: We offer a balanced schedule because we know you have a life outside the showroom.

  • Full Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, and 401(k) options.

  • Career Pathing: We prefer to promote from within.

  • Employee Discounts: Special pricing on vehicles, parts, and service

Ready to Drive Your Career Forward?

At Sunset Ford, we don’t just sell the best trucks and SUVs in the world; we provide a local experience that keeps generations of St. Louisans coming back.

Apply today and find out why "Sunset Ford is the place to go!"

Sunset Ford St. Louis

The history of Sunset Ford represents a long and proud tradition of offering quality cars and service. In 1912, Peter S. Heutel founded the Sunset Auto Repair Company on Gravois, which at that time was no more than a country gravel road. In 1916 Sunset Auto Repair Company became a franchised Ford dealer known as Sunset Ford. The current owners, John, Jim and Tom Heutel, believe that the commitment made by their great grandfather over 100 years ago to customer quality is still the driving force in making the company successful today. Along with customer service, Sunset Ford also believes the people they employ make a huge difference in their level of success. They feel great employees keep their customers coming back month after month and year after year. Sunset Ford takes pride in having professional staff in all of their departments. Today, fourth and fifth generation Heutel's are still behind the wheel of the family-operated dealership that supports local charities and other fundraising activities. Giving back to the local community is something Sunset Ford feels strongly about because without the community, nothing is possible! Two locations; St. Louis, MO and Waterloo, IL.
