Position Summary

Sony Honda Mobility of America (SHMA) is building a high-performing EV Sales &amp; Customer Engagement team to deliver a premium, end-to-end ownership journey for AFEELA.

In this customer-facing role, you will drive the full sales process&mdash;from first contact to delivery&mdash;while creating memorable, premium experiences in our studios and at events.
