Careers

Looks like you’re interested in joining the JK Team? We’d love to have you onboard!

Just Kampers is one of the leading producers and suppliers of parts and accessories for a huge range of VWs, from the classic air-cooled Beetle to the brand new VW T6.1 van.

There’s a team of more than 50 of us here at JK HQ in Odiham, Hampshire, working hard to make sure that we can get our customers the right products at the right prices, and get them delivered quickly. Whether you’re looking to join the team in our fast-paced warehouse, or you’ve got your eye on a role in our marketing, purchasing, sales or customer service teams, you’ll find the roles laid out below.

We’re based in a converted WWII aircraft hangar in Odiham, Hampshire – just down a winding country lane from RAF Odiham. In fact, you’ll often see Chinooks flying over while having lunch outside in the summer!

Because it’s fairly out of the way, you’ll need to be able to drive to work at JK HQ, since we’re a fair way from public transport. Some of us do cycle into work, but there are a lot of narrow country roads around here and no showers on site, so it’s not always the best option!

About the role

Title: Sales Executive
Hours: Full Time, 8:30 to 17:30, Monday to Friday
Location: Just Kampers, Odiham, Hampshire, RG29 1JE

Salary range – We’re looking to take on a Sales Executive who knows their VW Type 3 from their VW T3, or can demonstrate that they’re willing and able to learn the ins and outs of classic and modern VWs in no time. Because of this, we’re offering a salary range which may see a higher starting salary offered to applicants who can demonstrate a solid understanding of classic and modern Volkswagens.

Working from home – Although this was part of the measures we took during the Covid-19 lockdowns, remote work isn’t an option for this role at this time.
Members of our sales department will often need to physically check products from our warehouse, and speak face-to-face with colleagues from other departments. Our offices are based above the warehouse here at JK HQ, which makes it easy for us to reply to customer queries about the range of 10,000+ parts and accessories which we stock.

Attending shows – If you join our sales department, you may be asked to attend and work at VW shows and events, and other trade shows, throughout the year. These aren’t mandatory, and as much notice is given of the dates as possible, but you will earn extra money at more than your standard hourly rate by working at shows.

If this sounds good to you, send your CV to shaun@justkampers.co.uk
