Trainee Sales Executive - OMODA|JAECOO
OMODA|JAECOO Trainee Sales Executive at Peoples Automotive Group - Edinburgh
OMODA|JAECOO embody cutting-edge innovation and are making more waves than most as they continue to expand their product offering across the UK. As a result, we are delighted to be expanding our OMODA|JAECOO team for our brand new Edinburgh OMODA|JAECOO showroom and are looking for Trainee Sales Executives to come on board on a part-time basis. Gone are the days of 6-day working weeks, we are happy to consider a working pattern that works for you.
We are looking for passionate, positive, and driven people who are technology lovers and who have a genuine interest in delivering 5* customer experience. As a Sales Executive, you will be our OMODA|JAECOO expert with knowledge of the brand and our product offerings. You will be pivotal in engaging with customers and enhancing their journey and experience.
As a Sales Executive You Will
- Be the Expert: you’ll have an in-depth knowledge of the OMODA|JAECOO product range as well as what models are in the pipeline. This includes everything from understanding the features and benefits of the models and understanding what it means to be an EV owner.
- Be our engagement specialist: you’ll be the face of OMODA|JAECOO and will welcome customers into our showrooms and provide product information and demonstrations to get them familiar and excited about our models. There isn’t a piece of product technology that you won’t know and you’ll be able to positively share this with customers.
- Be an EV Advocate: you’ll have the knowledge, expertise, and confidence to explain the products to customers as well as alleviating concerns which customers may have from switching from ICE to EV. As we know, range anxiety, cost comparisons, and charging infrastructure are all fairly new concepts to our customers and future customers.
- Sell the sizzle: our products are one of the best in the market, and it will be your role to bring these products to life, whether that be on test drives, through video content, product walk-throughs, or digital enquiries.
- Be out and about in our communities: This isn’t a desk job. It will be part of your role to take part in marketing events and roadshows to make sure we bring the product out into our communities so that customers can experience it first-hand.
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.
