Join one of Nelson's most trusted automotive brands.

MS Ford has been proudly serving the Nelson and Tasman community since 1938. We are a cornerstone of the region's motoring landscape and are now seeking a driven and strategic General Sales Manager to lead our Ford franchise and used vehicle operations.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Collaborating closely with our Service, Parts, and Finance managers to deliver an exceptional customer experience
  • Driving continuous improvement and aligning dealership performance with MS Ford's growth strategy

About You

You'll be a results-oriented leader with a passion for the automotive industry and a proven record in dealership sales. You will:

  • Have experience in new and used vehicle operations
  • Understand manufacturer processes, reporting, and brand compliance
  • Possess strong people-leadership and communication skills
  • Demonstrate commercial acumen and strategic thinking
  • Be committed to delivering exceptional guest experiences and maintaining our proud community reputation

Why Join Us

At MS Ford you'll be joining a trusted business that values its people, community, and customers. You will have the opportunity to shape the future of one of Nelson's most recognised brands and lead a high-performing team backed by a premium franchise.

And if you are considering a move, this could be your opportunity to live and work in the paradise known as Nelson – with stunning beaches, mountain ranges, and an unbeatable lifestyle right on your doorstep.

If you are ready to take the next step in your automotive career and lead a respected dealership to new heights, we would love to hear from you.
