Škoda have an exciting opportunity for a Direct Sales Programme Manager to join our Direct Sales team on a permanent basis. In this role, you will be responsible for the delivery and future development roadmap for Retail Agency, eCommerce, Connected Car and Accessory Sales projects within the Brand. The role will allow you to work across Group and Brand teams to drive improvements in our online and offline journeys and ensure we are offering all our customers the best possible experience. It will involve delivering on-time, in budget programme changes to a level which helps to achieve our commercial objectives.

Some of the wider activities you will cover in this role include; driving major business transformation projects such as eCommerce and Agency, gaining stakeholder agreement and buy-in across Škoda and the wider Group and supporting the wider Direct Sales team on delivering and improving our new sales channel experiences.

The ideal candidate should have a thirst for driving change, ability to innovate and an excellent track record of delivering cross-functional projects in an organisation of similar complexity to VWG UK. As well as possessing strong stakeholder engagement and collaboration skills; you should also have a proven ability to quickly develop strong effective relationships with commercial, creative and technical people. Previous experience of working with an eCommerce solution would also be desirable, although not essential.

Right now we are at a pivotal moment as customer demands change, our business transforms and the focus is shifts towards CO2 free, connected cars. We are really only just at the beginning as Škoda is leading the charge for affordable, electrified mobility. We've noticed that Škoda cars are driven by a particular type of person. It's nothing to do with age, income or any other social demographic, but attitude. Our customers love driving something different because they're driven by something different. Just like us.

Great products, potential for a global career, limitless opportunities – you'll find all that here at Volkswagen Group UK. What really sets us apart is how we work – not how many vehicles we sell. Volkswagen Group UK has a unique culture, built on diversity, difference and a friendly rivalry that inspires us all. Across our brands and group functions, we learn from each other, encourage each other and regularly challenge each other to think differently. Our people have a true passion for what they do, a genuine desire to go further for customers and to give their own careers real momentum at the same time.

So what can we offer you? As an inclusive employer we know people value different things, so along with a competitive salary, car, fuel card and discretionary bonus, we offer a wide range of flexible benefits to suit you and your lifestyle including hybrid working.

Sound like a challenge? We'd love to hear from you…
