**What we’re looking for**

Do you love being around people and making them happy? If you’re also a good listener and a bit of a problem solver with great communication skills, then you’ll love being on the front line of making the magic happen

Every day brings new challenges and excitement, and every customer interaction allows you to do what you do best: find solutions and provide exceptional customer service.

Whether that is repainting the living room, landscaping the garden, or fitting a new kitchen or bathroom. We take real pride in what we do when we talk to Wickes customers.

Everything you do will be focused on the customer experience. Of course, while you’re creating a helpful and friendly customer experience, we’ll be thinking of new ways to reward, develop and invest in you.

You’ll receive full training in all areas. It’s all about being a naturally friendly, respectful, and helpful person who’s a bundle of enthusiasm and positivity. And if you’re skilled in the art of conversation, then using your personality to build rapport and delight our customers will be second nature.

**Our typical shift pattern for our Wickes Kitchen & Bathroom Team involves** 40 hours within the week, between 9 am and 8 pm Monday-Sunday, on a rotational basis.

- Adhering to quality standards and ensuring consistency in all interactions.

**You**

We believe that happy people keep people happy, so we’re looking for people who have excellent interpersonal skills and strong analytical skills as you will be expected to deal with a range of customer queries.

We’re delighted to drive innovation on-site day after day, so it’s a plus if you’re inventive and creative; we say yes to fresh new ideas to boost productivity, so reach out and help us shape the future.

We think big and we’re looking for team members who think bigger, achieve more and work smarter. Full training will be provided, but we want to hear from you if you have the following skills
