Chelsea, United Kingdom Papersmiths Full time

Happiness has many forms and new stationery is one of them.


We are looking for a full time Supervisor for our flagship Chelsea store on Pavilion Road.

We’re nothing without our people and our customers rave about our team. You’ll be joining a bunch of friendly, knowledgeable, passionate people, all with an outside interest in creation of some kind, from photography to songwriting. Everyone brings great chat to the shop floor because they’re genuinely excited about creation and probably a little bit obsessed with stationery. We love organisation and we keep our store immaculate. If this sounds like you then join our club


A day in the shop involves all sorts. This could include talking to customers, sharing product knowledge, taking photos or creating reels for Instagram, demonstrating products, selling products, stock checking, processing deliveries of stationery ( the best bit ), restocking, cleaning, tidying, visual merchandising or answering the phone. Its varied, fast paced and fun.


Our aesthetic has earned us coverage by the likes of Wallpaper*, The Evening Standard, We Heart, Design Week, Cereal Magazine and Gestalten, so we hold ourselves to high standards of store maintenance.

We’re looking for a Supervisor who will bring meticulous organization, initiative, a good balance of independent spirit and teamwork, efficiency, profitability, drive and positivity to the business.


This is a temporary position to start in September and ending January 31st 2025. It would suit someone with existing Retail Supervisor experience, or someone with at least 2 years retail experience who is looking to take the next step.
