The Role - Sales Assistant

(In other businesses, this could be known as a 'Sales Assistant', 'Sales Advisor', 'Sales Executive', 'Retail Assistant', 'Team Member')

We are currently looking for a Sales Consultant to join our team. You would play a significant role in helping us to achieve our vision, being a key player in moving our business forward, with your natural ability to engage, inspire and offer advice to our customers to ensure they choose the bed that suits them best

Your role as a Sales Consultant will involve:

Working closely with your store colleagues to ensure we offer every customer an outstanding in-store experience, we will give you extensive product training, and ongoing coaching and support throughout your time with us, giving you every opportunity to succeed, progress and build your perfect career

It should be noted that due to the nature of our products, the role will involve you and your colleagues moving product around in store and some cleaning tasks will be necessary to ensure the store and our products are in the best possible condition for our customers.

Our busiest times tend to be when our customers are free to come in and visit the store, which includes evenings, weekends and bank holiday weekends.
