Why a CV for this job?

94% of employers say their filters drop qualified candidates whose CV does not match the ad's exact criteria (Harvard Business School, 2021).

  • They see what they asked for, first. Your experience that matches the ad leads, in the ad's own words, so someone skimming finds it in seconds.
  • It gets past the software. Many larger employers use software that ranks CVs by how closely they match the ad, often before anyone reads them.
  • In the language of the ad. An ad written in Spanish gets a CV in Spanish, even when yours is in Portuguese.
  • Your facts, nothing invented. Your own experience, reordered and reworded. What the ad wants and your CV does not show is listed for you to add, only if it is true. You check it before you send it.

We’re looking for a Parts Advisor to work at our Motorstore in Nottingham. You don’t need to have previous parts experience to apply, as we’ll provide comprehensive training.

About the role

Do you have customer service skills and experience working with stock?

Our Parts Advisors are responsible for keeping our workshops well-stocked with the right parts to maintain our vehicles whilst also updating customers in relation to their vehicle journey through every stage of the process.

  • Identifying parts required for a vehicle
  • Ordering parts from internal and external sources
  • Picking and packing parts
  • Communicating with the workshop
  • Providing a quick and accurate service to our customers
  • Invoicing
  • Reviewing digital communications for customers
  • Stock management

Essential skills

  • Keen to learn, with a can-do attitude
  • The ability to work independently, but also as part of a team working towards the same goals
  • A great communicator – friendly, clear and concise
  • Enjoy working with your customers
  • Happy using computers, although we’ll provide training on all the systems you’ll need
