Join the Team That’s Shaping the Future of Online Car Auctions

Cars & Bids is the fastest-growing online auction platform for modern enthusiast cars, created by automotive journalist Doug DeMuro. Since launching in 2020, we’ve hosted over 27,000 auctions, sold more than $600 million in vehicles, and built a loyal community of buyers and sellers. We’re not just a marketplace — we’re a passionate, fast-moving team redefining how people buy and sell cars online.

We’re now hiring an Auction Manager to join our growing team. You’ll work alongside our existing team of Auction Managers to guide sellers through every step of the auction process – from initial submission to final sale – ensuring that each listing is accurate and compelling.

This is a dynamic, customer-facing role that blends automotive knowledge, communication skills, and a genuine love of helping others. If you’re obsessed with cars, thrive in fast-paced environments, and know how to deliver exceptional customer support, we want to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

• Serve as the main point of contact for sellers via chat, email, and phone throughout the auction process
• Help sellers collect and present key information and media for their listings
• Guide sellers through a highly emotional and personal process. Our goal is to understand their story and set their auction up for success
• Review and verify vehicle details to ensure accuracy and transparency
• Work closely with our editorial team and sellers to build thorough, engaging auction listings and appealing, well-organized photo galleries.
• Deliver fast, professional, and thoughtful support to every seller
• Collaborate across teams to continuously improve our platform, tools, and internal processes

What We’re Looking For

• A deep passion for enthusiast cars and the automotive world
• Strong knowledge of vehicle sales and documentation (titles, transfers, history reports, etc.)
• Experience providing high-touch customer support in fast-paced settings, ideally at startups, marketplaces, or online platforms
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Strong attention to detail and exceptional organizational habits
• Familiarity with Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, etc.)
• A collaborative mindset and experience working cross-functionally
• Adaptability, energy, and enthusiasm for startup-style environments
• Bonus: An eye for process improvement and a desire to make things better

Why Cars & Bids?

We’re a small, dedicated team with a big reach – and we’re just getting started. Here’s what you can expect when you join us:

• The chance to make a real impact at a fast-growing company
• A team of fellow car lovers who take pride in their work
• A say in shaping the future of our product and customer experience
• True remote flexibility, competitive compensation, equity, and room to grow
