Join a family-run business where your work genuinely matters Salary: £28,571.40 per year Hours: 45 hours per week (Mon-Fri) + alternate Saturdays Be part of something real

At SDL, you won't be lost in a big corporate machine - you'll join a friendly, supportive, family-run business where people look out for each other.

We've built our reputation over 47 years by treating customers well and taking care of our teams. When you join us, you become part of that family ethos from day one.

What you'll be doing

This is a hands-on role at the heart of our branch. You'll be picking and packing parts orders in an efficient way. Managing stock levels and ensuring that the warehouse is kept clean and tidy

If you enjoy helping people, solving problems, and being part of a busy, focused team - you'll feel right at home here.

Who we're looking for

You don't need motor factor experience - we'll train you. We're looking for someone who:

• Communicates well and enjoys talking to customers
• Has an interest in cars/mechanics or previous experience in sales/advice work
• Stays calm under pressure
• Brings a positive, reliable, "team-first" attitude

Experience with MAM or similar software is helpful, but not essential.

We promote people based on attitude and performance, not how long they've been here. For example:

• Jordan joined with no experience and is now a Branch Supervisor
• Hannah moved from retail and is now a Senior Sales Advisor

Your progression is genuinely in your hands.

What we offer

Alongside a competitive salary, you'll receive:

• Discounts on retail, gyms, travel, entertainment and more
• Company-branded uniform
• 24/7 employee advice line & GP phone access
• Death in Service cover
• Extra holidays for long service

And above all - a stable role in a friendly, growing business that values what you do.
