Job Summary: We are looking for a hands-on Sales Manager to own and scale revenue for Addenda Repair, an end-to-end Bodyshop & Garage Management Software. This role is for someone who knows the automotive repair ecosystem inside out — independent garages, dealer workshops, bodyshops, paint shops, parts suppliers, and insurer-linked repair networks — and is comfortable being on the ground, building relationships and closing deals. The ideal candidate combines field sales hustle, ecosystem credibility, and the ability to build long-term partnerships, not just transactional wins. Key Responsibilities

  • Drive new customer acquisition among:

  • Ecosystem & Partnership Development
  • Build and manage partnerships with:
  • Garage networks
  • Parts suppliers
  • Paint & consumables vendors
  • Insurer-linked repair programs
  • Identify channel and referral opportunities to scale distribution.

  • Repair workflow tracking
  • Estimates & approvals
  • Parts & inventory
  • Technician productivity
  • Billing & reporting
  • Tailor demos and proposals to garage size, maturity, and operational complexity.
  • Market Expansion & Intelligence
  • Map local garage clusters, repair hubs, and high-density automotive zones.
  • Track competitor offerings, pricing models, and adoption trends.
  • Provide regular field feedback to product and leadership teams.
  • Customer Success Enablement
  • Ensure clean handover to implementation and onboarding teams.
  • Support early adoption to reduce churn and drive referrals.
  • Identify upsell and expansion opportunities within existing accounts.
  • Requirements

  • Domain Expertise
  • Deep understanding of the automotive repair & bodyshop ecosystem.
  • Hands-on exposure to garages, workshops, or automotive service businesses.

  • Automotive SaaS
  • ERP / workflow tools
  • Automotive equipment or services (with a consultative sale)
  • Comfortable selling to owners, operations managers, and workshop heads.
  • Execution & Mindset
  • Highly field-oriented — comfortable spending significant time on-site.
  • Strong negotiation and closing skills.
  • Self-starter with ownership mindset; thrives without heavy hand-holding.
  • Communication & Relationship Building
  • Strong interpersonal skills and local ecosystem credibility.
  • Ability to simplify and sell operational software to non-technical buyers.
  • Trust-builder, not a pushy salesperson.
  • What Success Looks Like (First 6–12 Months)
  • Consistent monthly closures across garages and bodyshops.
  • Strong referral pipeline from partners and customers.
  • Deep understanding of local garage clusters and buying behavior.
  • Recognized as a go-to solution partner in the repair ecosystem.
  • What This Role Is (and Is Not)
