Jade says he and his dad Jack have a combined 60 years of experience in the motor trade, and the seachange involved with moving and buying the business “has been the best decisions of our lives.”
The AMH Autogroup employs a total of 59 people across their three locations in Ulladulla and Moruya.
“Our dealership offers many different positions from car washing to mechanics, parts interpreters, service advisers, administration staff, receptionist, finance consultants, sales staff, management positions; it varies from site to site.”

In addition to selling and servicing new and used vehicles “we provide anything car-related.”
That extends beyond replacement parts. They also have wheels and tyres, 4x4 accessories and upgrades, even camping needs. Additionally, AMH Money provides various loans including mortgages.
“We pride ourselves on customer service and ensuring that we meet and exceed all customers’ expectations, but in saying that we also like to provide a place that our family – all 59 of them – want to come to every day. If our family is happy then our guests/customers will be able to see that and then it will make everybody have an enjoyable experience at AMH. We want to be the place of choice for both our staff and customers alike.”
The varied industries that AMH Autogroup brings together have also experienced their own set of new challenges and changes in recent times, and these have had an influence on businesses and customers alike.
“The motor trade is going through significant change with no more [car] manufacturing in Australia [and] the ASIC changes to car finance to the amount of choice in the Australian market. It is forever changing and is a very adaptable industry. The latest significant change is the amount of research and development that is going into electrification of vehicles. We believe it won’t be too long until the majority of our vehicles are electric.”
