Brayleys is a modern, fast-growing automotive dealer group with a strong presence across the UK. We represent some of the most respected brands in the industry including Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, Kia, Renault, Suzuki, Mazda, Dacia and Honda Motorcycles.

We're building something ambitious. Our goal is to become one of the UK's top 10 AM 100 dealer groups, and we know that getting there depends on hiring and developing the very best people. That's why we place huge value on creating a workplace where individuals feel supported, trusted and recognised. We invest in training, structured career development and tailored programmes such as our Rising Stars and Leadership Development initiatives, designed to help people progress and thrive at every level.
At Brayleys, we believe a great business starts with a great culture. Every team member plays a part in our success, and that shared sense of purpose runs through every showroom, workshop and office. Whether you're just starting out or joining us with years of experience, you'll find a collaborative, energised environment with plenty of opportunity to grow.
We're also committed to building a more inclusive and representative industry. As a Gold Member of the Automotive 30% Club, we are actively working to improve gender balance across the business and champion more diverse leadership across the automotive sector.
That commitment hasn't gone unnoticed. We've been officially recognised by Great Place to Work as one of the UK's Best Workplaces 2025, as well as one of the UK's Best Workplaces for Wellbeing and Best Workplaces for Development. These awards are based entirely on what our people say about working here, and we're proud of the culture they've helped shape.
