About Auto Trader
We're Auto Trader, the UK's leading automotive marketplace and a FTSE 100 tech-listed company, uniting the largest and most engaged consumer audience with the most extensive network of vehicle sellers. At our core, it's all about people. We embrace diversity, celebrate our differences, and forge our own path.

About the job
We're looking for a Performance Manager to join our Sales & Customer Partnerships team in Manchester.
As part of a collaborative team, you will strategically engage with car retailers, manufacturers, and internal stakeholders, demonstrating strong advocacy in acquiring and embedding our New Car product. Your responsibilities within this will include driving stock and retailer volumes, mitigating risks, and identifying commercial opportunities.
Using your expert product knowledge, curiosity, and our unrivalled data you will enable our retail customers and manufacturers to remain competitive in today's digital marketplace.
By partnering with car retailers and manufacturers you will optimise product performance and drive engagement through sharing best practice, supporting manufacturers with stock listings, delivering training and fixing problems. You will humanise data and complex products and align them to their goals and strategies so they can meet the needs of today's online car buyer.
You'll work closely with the wider business including our Account Manager and Account Director community to share insight, product updates and to support them in unlocking commercial opportunity with their customers.
You might believe that a passion for cars is a requirement, but guess what? It's not! We're looking for people who are passionate about achieving customer success, mitigating risk and driving return on investment while maximising new opportunities.
What we're looking for
- Experience working with customers to embed products and improve engagement and performance.
- You will be confident to work with and challenge both internal and external stakeholders.
- Experience in using data to tell a story and you'll be confident using Excel or other insight tools such as Looker.
- You will be commercially minded and will have experience achieving or exceeding team targets and KPI's
- You will be proactive and have a collaborative approach which allows you to spot opportunities, risk and drive change forward.
Finally, we're looking for someone who is curious and excited to become an expert, and drive growth, of our New Car product.
At Auto Trader, we believe that every candidate brings a unique blend of talents. If you find yourself ticking some, but not all, of the requirement boxes, we'd love to hear from you.
Benefits and more
We're offering a salary of up to £45,000, and a flexible benefits package to support your health and well-being.
Enjoy 28 days of annual leave, in addition to bank holidays and half-day closures on Christmas and New Year's Eve. Our Aviva pension scheme offers employer contributions ranging from 5% to 7%. We also provide Bupa Healthcare enhanced medical coverage to all employees, which includes support for assisted fertility, gender dysphoria, menopause, and period care plans.
But that's not all. We offer enhanced parental leave, a car salary sacrifice scheme, share-save options, and much more. When you join us, you'll also become an owner of Auto Trader, receiving an additional 10% of your salary in shares each year. This allows you to share in the value you help create, and you'll also have the chance to increase your ownership through our Save As You Earn scheme.
Our hybrid model, Connected Working, combines the best of both worlds – office and home working. With Connected Working, you'll have two fixed weekly office days dedicated to team collaboration. In addition to your fixed office days, we expect you to be in more than you're out. You can choose the specific days that suit your work requirements, home commitments, and team needs.
