Shelbourne Motors
Shelbourne Motors is a multi-award winning, family-run automotive group representing some of the world's most recognised vehicle manufacturers, alongside our own growing portfolio of specialist and rental brands. With significant plans for continued growth, we're investing seriously in technology and AI to make the business run smarter — and we're looking for the right person to help lead that change.
We're looking for someone who gets things done — a project person who thrives on turning ideas into working solutions, from new system rollouts to cross-functional improvement projects across the business.
This is a genuinely cross-functional role with real ownership and direct visibility to senior leadership. You'll work across sales, aftersales, marketing, and finance, rolling out new technology, improving data and reporting, and driving genuine adoption of what you build.
What you'll do
Business improvement and process optimisation
- Work with stakeholders across sales, aftersales, parts, logistics, and back-office functions to map current processes and identify inefficiencies.
- Analyse workflows and recommend system or process changes that reduce cost, cycle time, or manual effort.
- Track and report on the benefits delivered from improvement initiatives.
- Build business cases for proposed initiatives, including cost, time savings, and payback period.
AI and innovation
- Identify opportunities where AI and automation can improve efficiency and ways of working across the group.
- Support the rollout of AI tools into customer-facing and internal processes.
- Measure and report on the impact and adoption of AI initiatives.
- Facilitate training sessions to build AI awareness and adoption among management.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
