Job DescriptionSales Manager
Graff Chevrolet of Chesterton
Chesterton, IN
If you are a proven automotive sales leader and you know you can do more with the right platform, we want to talk to you.
Graff Chevrolet of Chesterton is looking for a high-level Sales Manager who can lead from the front, drive performance, build a strong culture, and capitalize on one of the most unique retail opportunities in the market.
This is more than a typical dealership management role. As part of the Graff Auto Campus, this position gives you access to the advantages of a true multi-brand operation, including five new car franchises and hundreds of used vehicles on-site. That means more opportunity, more traffic, more inventory flexibility, and more ways to help your team win.
If you are currently producing but feel limited by your store’s inventory, support, tools, or growth potential, this may be the opportunity you have been waiting for.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
-
Part of the Graff Auto Campus, one of the most unique automotive retail environments in the region
-
Access to 5 new vehicle brands
-
Access to hundreds of used vehicles on-site
-
More inventory options to help close deals and keep customers on your campus
-

-
Opportunity to make a real impact, not just occupy a desk
-
Leadership that values operators who can drive results and develop people
-
A store and campus with momentum, visibility, and long-term opportunity
What You’ll Be Expected to Do
-
Lead the sales floor with urgency, accountability, and energy
-
Desk deals effectively and help maximize volume, gross, and close rate
-
Coach, develop, and challenge the sales team to perform at a high level
-
Drive execution around CRM activity, lead follow-up, appointments, and process consistency
-
Partner with BDC, F&I, and leadership to improve overall store performance
-
Help manage inventory strategy, merchandising, aging, and deal flow
-
Step in on customer issues, close gaps quickly, and keep momentum strong
-
Recruit and retain talent that can elevate store performance
-
Help create a winning culture where expectations are high and performance is recognized
Who We Want
-
A proven automotive sales manager who knows how to lead and produce
-
Someone who understands how to create momentum on the floor
-
A manager who can hold people accountable while still building culture
-
Someone who sees opportunity in inventory depth, campus traffic, and multi-brand flexibility
-
A leader who wants to be part of building something bigger than a single-store operation
-
A competitive, process-driven operator who wants real opportunity for impact and growth
Qualifications
-
Prior automotive sales management experience preferred
-
Proven track record of driving performance and developing teams
-
Strong desk skills and understanding of retail automotive operations
-
Experience with CRM, lead management, and process accountability
-
Strong communication, leadership, and customer handling ability
