Finance Manager in Training

A salary while you learn. Commission as you grow.

DRIVEN Auto Group | Newmarket, Ontario

$40,000 annual base salary + Commissions and Bonus (Potential to earn up to 100K per year)

Full-time • In person • Full Benefits

You’re good with people. You’re comfortable on the phone. Interested in the car business, but the idea of relying entirely on commission has held you back?

At DRIVEN, we’re opening a different door.

We’re looking for confident, organized people who can connect with customers, follow a clear process and learn how automotive financing works—with an experienced finance director guiding them.

At DRIVEN, we’re giving you a way to earn while you learn.

We’re hiring Finance Managers in Training to work with customers who have responded to our online ads and need help purchasing and financing a vehicle.

You don’t need to arrive knowing automotive lending, credit or how to structure a car deal. You do need to be coachable, organized and willing to follow a process.

You’ll have a script to guide the conversation and experienced finance leadership to guide the deal.

About the role

You’ll reach out to customers, get to know their situation and understand what they’re looking for. Using our script and needs analysis, you’ll gather the information and documents needed to move their application forward.

From there, you’ll work directly with our finance leadership team. They’ll review the file, determine the financing strategy and guide you through the next steps.

These will be your customers and your deals. You’ll stay involved through vehicle selection, approval and delivery, building your skills with direction and support along the way.

This is an active, phone-based role with clear expectations for follow-up, accuracy and results. You’ll need persistence, empathy and the confidence to keep a conversation moving.

At DRIVEN, we help people take their next step toward a vehicle. This could be your next step, too.

DRIVEN. Driven to move you forward.
