We are seeking a highly experienced, results-driven Automotive General Manager to lead our new Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram (CDJR) dealership location in Arkansas. This is an outstanding opportunity for a proven automotive leader who knows how to build a winning team, drive profitability, increase market share, and establish a strong dealership operation. We are especially interested in candidates with a successful General Manager background at a General Motors (GM) or Chevrolet dealership. Experience managing a high-volume franchised automotive dealership is strongly preferred. We are not looking for someone to simply manage a dealership. We want a strong, hands-on leader who can build, lead, motivate, and deliver results.

Key Responsibilities: Oversee all dealership operations, including New and Used Vehicle Sales, Finance & Insurance, Fixed Operations, and Customer Satisfaction. Develop and execute strategies to increase sales volume, gross profit, and overall dealership profitability. Recruit, train, develop, and retain a high-performing management and sales team. Establish clear performance expectations and hold department managers accountable. Manage dealership financial performance, budgets, expenses, inventory, and operational efficiency. Drive market share growth while maintaining exceptional customer satisfaction. Build a strong dealership culture focused on professionalism, accountability, and long-term success. Work closely with ownership to achieve aggressive business objectives.

Qualifications: Proven experience as a General Manager of a franchised automotive dealership is required. General Motors (GM) or Chevrolet dealership leadership experience is highly preferred. Strong understanding of dealership financial statements, variable and fixed operations, inventory management, and profitability. Demonstrated ability to build successful teams and consistently exceed performance objectives. Excellent communication, leadership, organizational, and decision-making skills. Strong working knowledge of automotive retail operations, dealership processes, and manufacturer standards. Must be a hands-on leader with a track record of delivering measurable results. CDJR experience is a plus but not required.

What We Offer: Competitive executive compensation package commensurate with experience. Performance-based earning opportunities. Opportunity to lead and develop a new dealership location. Strong ownership support and opportunity for professional growth. The ability to make a significant impact on the dealership's long-term success. Ready to Lead? If you are an experienced Automotive General Manager with a strong background in General Motors, Chevrolet, or another major franchised automotive dealership, we want to hear from you.

Equal Opportunity Employer: We are committed to providing equal employment opportunities to all qualified applicants. Project management or supply chain experience preferred
