Store Manager

Location: on site in Gatwick and Maidstone (company car included)

Working Pattern: Monday – Friday, 9.00am – 6.00pm

We're cinch. Our mission is simple – remove the faff from buying and owning cars, giving customers more choice, with more ease. We’re putting drivers first and we’ve ripped up the rule book to make sure that happens.

We’re a customer-first business with huge ambition. Already the UK’s largest online used car retailer, we’re expanding our customer offering with an exciting roadmap of online and physical retail solutions.

For customers who want to try before they buy, cinch Stores offer a faff-free environment to test drive, buy and drive away a cinch car on the same day.

Visitors to our stores can also choose from over 7,000 cars available on our website and app – the same choice as customers browsing and buying online from home. Customers can have their car delivered to their home, or pick it up from a local collection centre or in-store.

Oh, and did we mention that all our cars come with a 14-day money back guarantee and a free 90-day warranty?

cinch is part of the Constellation Automotive Group, the UK and Europe’s largest market-leading integrated digital car marketplace.

That means we’re part of a family including WeBuyAnyCar.com, BCA and Marshall Motor Group. We like to keep good company.
