Job Description - Used Vehicle Buyer

Considering a career with Ken Garff Automotive Group means you are in for a great ride (excuse the car metaphor)! We’re not your standard dealership or group of dealerships and we are pretty darn proud of that. We are out to do things differently and want to consistently change, grow, and progress. For that reason, our employees are proud of where they work!

With our aggressively growing used vehicle business, we are currently seeking an experienced Used Vehicle Buyer to join our sales operations team at our corporate offices.  The position is based in Salt Lake City and will be responsible for purchasing vehicles in various simulcast auction channels and trade networks as well as fleet direct souring across the country. 

Here’s why you’ll want to work here:

  • Great culture and real career growth
  • Competitive Compensation Package (Salary plus performance-based bonus structure $80-$140,000)
  • Opportunity to work with one of the largest family owned group of dealerships
  • Paid Time Off and 401k with Company match
  • Medical, Dental, Vision, Short and Long-term disability, AD&D and Life Insurance
  • Year-end bonus program for all employees (Garff Giveback)
  • Employee discounts on Vehicle Purchase, Parts, Service and More!

Here’s what you’ll be doing:

  • Analyze market for trends in vehicle wholesale values and work directly with retail leadership within a defined market area to develop buying plans based on sales pace/stocking levels and needs and through regular engagement with assigned stores
  • Achieve monthly purchasing quotas and gross margin targets by strategically sourcing vehicles from multiple online sources, fleet direct relationships and group trade networks
  • Manage your assigned store’s inventory through supply chain life cycle and post-sale process including coordinating payment, freight and logistics and arbitration
  • Develop and maintain ongoing relationships with auction personnel, fleet representatives and internal partners
  • Serve as subject matter expert for market conditions, trends and changes in geographic market
  • Provide guidance and support to store leadership as it relates to purchasing and evaluating used vehicles and pricing inventory strategically to market conditions
  • Review and analyze actions at the end of each day, week, month, and year to determine how to better utilize time and plans more effectively
  • Position is based at corporate headquarters in downtown Salt Lake City with occasional travel required to assigned stores for engagement and planning with store leadership. This is not a remote position.
  • Other duties as assigned

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Prior automotive industry experience required with 3-5 years of previous buying experience needed
  • V-Auto/Stockwave experience and demonstratable competence is required
  • Self-motivated and able to achieve objectives with minimal structure
  • Comfortable with technology-based platforms 
  • College Degree preferred but not required; High school diploma or the equivalent required
  • Exceptional written and oral communication skills

We are an Equal Opportunity Employer
