The role is based from Renault Hayes, Middlesex.

Priority will be given to candidates who reside within practical access of the M4, M25, or western sections of the A406, due to their proximity to the Hayes home base and the key transport routes connecting our dealership network across London and the Home Counties.

We will also consider professionally experienced and suitably qualified candidates based south of the River Thames or towards North and East London where their location and experience support practical coverage of our wider dealership network.
