- Learning dealership systems, lender portals and finance processes
- Helping maintain a professional, organized and efficient Finance Office
- Providing an excellent customer experience before, during and after delivery
- Gradually learning customer interviews, credit applications, lender submissions and financial product presentations
- Taking on additional Finance Manager responsibilities as your training progresses
Where This Role Can Lead
Our goal is to develop a successful candidate into a Junior Finance Manager.
You will receive hands-on exposure to:
- Automotive lending
- Leasing
- Credit applications
- Lender relationships
- Finance approvals
- Vehicle protection products
- Extended warranties
- Finance office compliance
- Customer presentations
- Deal structuring
- Funding and documentation
- Dealership operations
Advancement is based on your performance, ability to learn, professionalism, accuracy, customer service and demonstrated readiness to take on greater responsibility.
Who We’re Looking For
You do not need to already be an experienced Automotive Finance Manager.
We are more interested in finding someone with the right ability and attitude.
The ideal candidate will be:
- Ambitious and interested in building a career in automotive finance
- Extremely organized and detail-oriented
- Professional in appearance and communication
- Comfortable speaking with customers

- Comfortable learning new software and technology
- Able to work in a fast-paced environment
- Reliable and able to follow through on tasks
- Coachable and eager to learn
- Comfortable working as part of a sales-driven team
- Able to communicate clearly and professionally in English
Previous experience in banking, lending, automotive sales, customer service, luxury retail, hospitality, administration or another customer-facing environment would be an asset, but is not required.
The ability to communicate in Mandarin and/or Cantonese is considered a strong asset due to the diverse customer base we serve.
Why Richmond Hyundai?

You will have the opportunity to learn from an experienced automotive management and finance team while being exposed to a large volume of real-world transactions. We believe the best way to learn this business is by being involved in it.
For the right person, this position can provide a path from:
