Commercial Vehicle Sales Manager

ComfortDelGro Engineering (“CDGE”) is going through an exciting transformation journey. CDGE has more than 40 years’ experience providing automotive services for taxis, as well as private and commercial vehicles. We are also the exclusive distributor for Volvo Bus & Parts, Davanti Tyres (passenger cars) and Duraturn Tyres (Commercial Vehicles).

To support Singapore Green Plan 2030, CDGE formed a joint venture (“JV”) with ENGIE South East Asia – ComfortDelGro ENGIE Pte Ltd to enter into Electric Vehicle charging (“EV Charging”) and won the first 2 public tenders to install around 5,000 public chargers in Singapore. CDGE also formed a solar JV with ENGIE – ComfortDelGro ENGIE Solar Pte Ltd to provide solar energy to customers.

As Singapore moves towards adopting Electric Vehicles, the industry will see an increase in demand for safe handling of EVs. Therefore, CDGE collaborated with TÜV SÜD PSB to set up CDGE Academy to upskill technicians on safe handling of high-voltage EVs.

We are looking for a team member to join CDGE and grow the B2B business for our electric vehicle.
