Weekend Welcome Advisor

 

Welcome Advisor  (Navan)

Kylemore Cars is Ireland’s largest independent used car retailer. Established in 2013, the business has grown from strength to strength, building a strong reputation for quality used vehicles, exceptional customer service and a straightforward approach to car buying.

In 2022, Kylemore Cars marked a major milestone with the opening of its purpose-built, state-of-the-art NZEB showroom in Ballymount, Dublin 12. The first facility of its kind in Ireland, the showroom reflects the company’s continued investment in innovation, sustainability and the customer experience.

Building on more than a decade of growth, Kylemore Cars is now entering another exciting chapter. In late 2026, the company will expand its dealership footprint with the opening of a new used car showroom at Balmoral in Navan, bringing the Kylemore Cars offering directly to customers across County Meath and the wider North-East region.

Our arrival in Navan comes at an exciting time for the town and, in particular, the wider Balmoral area. Significant public and private investment is helping to transform and better connect the area, including the recently completed Blackwater River Town Bridge and Cycleway linking Balmoral with Blackwater Park and Navan town centre, together with the development of the new landmark Navan Primary Care Centre at Balmoral.

These developments reflect the wider ambition for Navan and County Meath as a place to live, work and do business. Kylemore Cars is delighted to become part of that continued growth and to complement the investment already taking place through our own significant commitment to the area, creating new employment opportunities and bringing our established retail offering to County Meath.

The expansion also reflects the progressive approach being taken towards economic development within County Meath, with continued investment in infrastructure alongside supports designed to encourage businesses to establish, grow and create employment within the county.

As part of this exciting expansion, we are now recruiting for a number of key positions to form our new Navan team, including Welcome Advisors ( Full Time & Part Time Position Available ).

The Role

At Kylemore Cars, we believe the customer experience begins from the moment someone arrives at our showroom.

As the first point of contact for customers visiting our showroom, the Welcome Advisor plays a vital role in creating an outstanding first impression and delivering an exceptional customer experience.

This is much more than a traditional reception role. The Welcome Advisor is at the centre of our front-of-house operation, welcoming customers, understanding the purpose of their visit and ensuring they are connected quickly and professionally with the appropriate person or department.

Working closely with our Sales, Motor Finance, Administration and wider dealership teams, you will ensure every customer receives a warm welcome, is kept informed and experiences the high standards of service for which Kylemore Cars is known.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys working with people, takes pride in delivering excellent customer service and thrives in a busy, fast-paced retail environment where no two days are the same.

Duties & Responsibilities

The successful candidate will:

  • Welcome every customer to the showroom in a professional, friendly and engaging manner.
  • Create a positive first impression that reflects the Kylemore Cars brand and values.
  • Identify the purpose of each customer's visit and introduce them to the appropriate Sales Executive or department.
  • Ensure customers are acknowledged promptly, kept informed and comfortable while waiting.
  • Assist customers with general enquiries both in person and over the telephone.
  • Professionally manage incoming telephone calls, ensuring calls are answered promptly and directed efficiently.
  • Coordinate customer and visitor arrivals, appointments and general enquiries.
  • Take accurate messages and ensure timely follow-up by the relevant person or department.
  • Support effective communication across Sales, Motor Finance, Administration and the wider dealership team.
  • Respond professionally to customer emails and general reception enquiries.
  • Maintain accurate customer information within our CRM and internal systems.
  • Support customer review activity and online reputation management.
  • Assist with Change of Ownership documentation and other customer administration.
  • Coordinate and maintain the showroom spare-key process.
  • Maintain reception logs, visitor records and daily customer footfall reporting.
  • Order and manage reception and office consumables.
  • Maintain the reception area and customer waiting facilities to a consistently high standard.
  • Ensure company literature, promotional materials and customer information are appropriately displayed.
  • Provide general administrative support across the dealership as required.
  • Support colleagues during busy trading periods, promotional activities and company events.

The Successful Candidate

We are looking for someone who is naturally welcoming, confident with people and takes genuine pride in delivering an excellent customer experience.

The successful candidate will ideally:

  • Have previous experience in reception, hospitality, retail, customer service or an administrative environment.
  • Have excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
  • Be professional, confident, friendly and approachable.
  • Have a genuine passion for helping people.
  • Be highly organised with strong time-management skills.
  • Have excellent attention to detail.
  • Be able to prioritise competing tasks within a busy, fast-paced environment.
  • Have strong administration and IT skills, including familiarity with Microsoft Office applications.
  • Be comfortable learning and adapting to CRM and other business systems.
  • Have excellent spoken and written English.
  • Be capable of working independently while also contributing effectively as part of a team.
  • Demonstrate initiative and a willingness to take ownership of the customer experience.
  • Bring energy, enthusiasm and a positive attitude to the role.
  • Be flexible in their approach and willing to support colleagues across the dealership.

Previous motor industry experience would be an advantage but is not essential. Full training and support will be provided.

A Leaving Certificate or equivalent qualification is desirable. Further qualifications in Business Administration, Customer Service or Hospitality would be advantageous.

What is the Opportunity?

Joining Kylemore Cars Navan offers the opportunity to become part of a completely new dealership team from the very beginning, while benefiting from the experience, systems and support of an established and financially secure Irish business.

The Welcome Advisor will play an important role in establishing the culture and customer experience of our new Navan showroom from day one.

The position also provides an excellent opportunity to develop a broad understanding of the motor retail business. Working closely with multiple departments will provide exposure to Sales, Motor Finance, Administration and the wider customer journey.

For someone with the right attitude and ambition, there will be opportunities to develop their skills, take on additional responsibility and progress their career as Kylemore Cars continues to grow.

Rewards

We offer a competitive salary package combined with career development opportunities within a financially secure and expanding company.

We will recognise and reward hard work, loyalty, initiative and achievement.
