Retail Sales Consultant - Interiors

Overview

Retail Sales Consultant:
Our client is searching for an enthusiastic Retail Sales Consultant for their modern showroom in Islington. They require someone who is confident, articulate and intelligent; someone with impeccable English, who’s confident with computers, has a great eye for design and a natural ability to communicate. They don’t do pushy sales; they believe their product range sells itself. You’ll be an advisor providing guidance both on design and technical specifics.

They need people who can convey complex principles in a concise manner; people who can give their retail customers the confidence to buy from them and provide aftersales support too. They are one of a few leading online suppliers of high-end interiors, who also have a High Street presence in several sites. They’re a steadily expanding company with an enthusiastic and committed team, and have grand ambitions to expand in the UK.

They now want talented individuals to be a part of that success.

Day-to-day retail tasks will include greeting visitors in the high-end retail showroom in Islington, answering enquiries by phone and email and providing after-sales service. Preparation of quotes is key to their business and requires some knowledge of building properties and heating principles. Full training will be provided, but since their clients are often architects and interior designers, an understanding of architectural plans would be an advantage.

It’s a retail role and will involve regular work at weekends.

We encourage continued professional development and welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
