JARDINE Motors Group has started a recruitment drive to find new employees to work in its two new sites in Slough.
A multi-million pound investment into the pair of new state-of-the-art dealerships in the Berkshire town – one for Jaguar and one for Land Rover – means the dealer group is now looking for prospective staff ‘who can bring something new to the business and deliver the exceptional customer service for which the group is renowned.’
The recruitment drive is part of Jardine’s ambition to grow in the region and recruit people to take on positions in a variety of departments, including customer service, sales and support. The group also has several vacancies for technicians.
Clare Martin, HR director at Jardine Motors Group, commented: ‘It’s an exciting time to enter the automotive industry, which is why we are investing in our teams in Slough. We need people who take pride in their work, have ambitions to be the best and want to deliver an exceptional customer experience.
‘In return, we offer a fulfilling career with a healthy work-life balance, with flexible working, 33 days annual leave for all, industry-leading pay and benefit packages, excellent career progression and innovative employee offers. We retain and develop our staff, and take pride in seeing that 93 per cent of our workforce “enjoy their job”.
‘With the exception of technicians, we do not require prior experience in the automotive industry; in fact, as we grow, and prepare for cars with new technology, we are bringing in more people from other industries to work for us. As an example, last month 52 per cent of our new recruits were from outside of our industry. All we ask is for passionate individuals who want to provide our customers with outstanding service.
‘I would encourage any bright and enthusiastic individuals who want to embark on a rewarding career to consider the opportunities that are available in motor retail and get in touch now.’
