We are Breeze…
…and we are probably more than you think!
Breeze has been synonymous with the Volkswagen brand for many years, having opened our first Volkswagen car showroom in 2000, with our Volkswagen van centres in Poole, Southampton and Portsmouth following. But did you know we also own Bournemouth TPS, Breeze Suzuki, Breeze Campers and Ducati Bournemouth?
We operate a ‘one business’ ethos; all working together to create a refreshingly positive environment that enables both individuals and the business to flourish, with our ongoing expansion programme providing excellent career opportunities with comprehensive and continuous training.
Why Breeze?
When we welcome you to Breeze, you become part of the family.
We work hard to achieve our business goals but also recognise the importance of having fun along the way – whether that’s a staff BBQ at Christmas, family fun days, bake offs or just an ice cream on a hot day!
And there are other great benefits of working for Breeze too…

I first joined Breeze Motor Group as a Temporary Host, with a two-week contract. The initial warm welcome I received, and sense of community made me feel right at home.
After a few days I was offered a full time Host position and jumped at the chance. Fast forward five months, a Group Marketing Assistant position became available. I applied and, with no experience but a passion for marketing, I was over the moon to be accepted.
Since then, I have been involved in projects I never thought I would be able to achieve and, recently, passed my CIM Certificate in Professional Marketing! From encouraging me to apply, to the funding, and allowing time for me to attend online lessons, the Breeze team has been 100% supportive and I couldn’t have done it without them.

As a long-standing employee of Breeze, I would recommend coming to join us.
I joined Breeze in 2014 as a Showroom Host and love every minute of my job. I have met some lovely people while working for Breeze, both customers and staff.
Breeze is not just a nice place to work it is also like a big family.

After working for another major dealership group for over 8 years a change was due. Starting with Breeze was like a breath of fresh air with challenges, a new brand to learn and a new way of working. Breeze gave me everything I needed to succeed and now I am happier than I ever was in my previous job. The first thing I noticed was the sense of community between colleagues – Volkswagen is a great company to be linked with but the people within Breeze are what makes it even better.

My time at Breeze as an apprentice has been a fantastic journey. From starting off as a trainee, who knew virtually nothing of the trade but ready to learn, to Junior Accountant, and now a well-established and trusted part of the team as a qualified Accountant.
All through my apprenticeship, I was supported by not only my managers but many friendly colleagues from across the business. They kept me motivated to strive for the best and achieve my qualifications, and I couldn’t ask for a better group of people to work with.
Breeze is a great place to work while studying, as staff are highly respected and appreciated; both of which are brilliant motivators to achieve your goals. Breeze also has a rewarding and progressive work environment, so you’ll be recognised for your accomplishments!

I’m starting my 3rd year with Breeze. Due to Covid, I am behind on my training at the Volkswagen NLC (National Learning Centre), but they are doing their upmost to catch me up to finish my apprenticeship this year. Everyone at the NLC are very supportive and have a wide range of knowledge to help me have a better understanding of how vehicles work. Also meeting other apprentices from across the country has enabled me to make friends with them.
The people I work with within Breeze are great. They are all supportive in helping me develop my skills and knowledge. Being part of the Breeze group is great, with the company expanding and everyone getting along.

I started my journey at Breeze as an apprentice 4 years ago and have recently completed my AAT Level 4 Professional Diploma in Accounting.
Everyone at Breeze is very welcoming, supportive, and friendly. I have been receiving the best training and support I could ever ask for. I am constantly learning and taking on new challenges and all my hard work is being recognised and praised. What I like about Breeze the most is that they value and care for their employees’ personal development and growth.

Since starting my apprenticeship at Breeze, I have had loads of training and support from not only my own team but everyone throughout the business from Sales to Logistics.
I have been given many opportunities, such as spending days with different departments to help me build my knowledge of the trade as well as Breeze itself. Everyone here has been friendly and welcoming, helping me build my confidence, which I will be always grateful for.

I’ve been within the Breeze group for a just under eight years in total starting as a part time Valeter at the age of sixteen whilst finishing school. I took a short hiatus whilst I went to university, and I was welcomed back with open arms when I decided that the motor industry was the career I wanted.
Breeze have valued my progression throughout my career, and supported me by providing relevant stepping stones to get to a position I want to be in. There’s always been plenty of opportunity for growth, most recently being invited to join the team at our exciting new Suzuki franchise.
Breeze has the best people, an incredible work environment, and tons of awesome opportunities. It’s everything you could ask for, and more!
