Jill Williamson, 35, came to retail auto at 33 after a string of other careers, as a Product Specialist who, by her own account, couldn’t tell a Charger from a Challenger. In under two years she has moved into desking deals and managing the Product Specialists at John Hiester Chevrolet of Lillington. As Equity Mining Manager, she finds the deals that would otherwise be missed each month with a five-person team.
She credits her managers for the speed. They helped her get her footing in a sales role that was new to her, and the company kept pushing her to grow. She leads her team the same way, with training open to anyone who needs it and a push for the same unity and initiative across the whole sales floor.
Away from the lot, she helps with local animal rescues and shelters.
“I’m a peacock and they have definitely let me fly.”
