EMPOWER TO BUILD

Being a successful media salesperson is "truly about being in front of the clients and in constant contact. You’re not the ‘set it and forget it’ guy. You’re checking in to see if things are working. Seeing if they are getting a response. Seeing if you need to change the creative. Being a true consultant to the partners of the company."

Outside of her work at Cox Automotive, Jessica owns an online fashion boutique. "Cox is extremely supportive. I am lucky to be a part of a culture that supports my dream and asks about each milestone. My team members have purchased several items, and I’m working on special projects from some of my colleagues. I realize that not every company is like that and that’s what makes Cox Automotive special. I am fully invested in the work that I do here.”

“I always tell prospective employees that I know for certain this company would stand behind me if something happened. If, for example, my house burned down, I’d have a crowd of Cox co-workers at my curb asking me what I needed before the firefighters even left.,” she said. “I think that’s very rare in this day and age. And it really differentiates Cox.”

Over my career I’ve almost always worked for privately held companies, and the difference is noticeable. Cox takes great care of its employees and has excellent benefits. I have a great relationship with my management team, and the team and the company are always putting employees first.
