Sales Assistant
Marlow, Buckinghamshire (Part Time: 20 hours a week including weekends)
About Us
Home Barn is a much-loved interiors destination, housed in a beautiful 17th-century tithe barn on the outskirts of historic Marlow, Buckinghamshire.
We believe the most inspiring homes are created by mixing old and new. A reclaimed oak dining table alongside a contemporary sofa. Antique ceramics paired with soft linens and seasonal foliage. Pieces chosen not to follow trends, but to create homes with warmth, character and timeless style.
Our collection includes antique and reclaimed furniture, handmade British sofas and armchairs, outdoor furniture, lighting, mirrors, textiles and decorative accessories, all carefully curated to bring individuality and understated luxury to modern family homes.
We're an independent, family-run business, and we care as much about the people who work here as the customers who walk through our doors.
The Role
We're looking for a friendly, reliable Sales Assistant to join our team at our Marlow store on a part-time basis, working weekends. This is a hands-on, people-first role at the heart of what we do - helping customers find pieces they'll love for years to come.
What You'll Be Doing
- Delivering genuinely great customer service - from a warm welcome to in-depth conversations about larger, longer-term investment pieces like furniture and dining tables
- Building real relationships with customers, taking time to understand what they're looking for and matching them with the right pieces
- Keeping the sales floor beautifully presented at all times - restocking, reordering and refreshing displays so the store always looks its best
- Supporting the team with visual merchandising, making sure every corner of the store reflects the Home Barn brand
- Updating pricing accurately and promptly as stock changes
- Being a knowledgeable, enthusiastic ambassador for the brand and the collection
About You
- A natural people person with excellent communication skills
- Someone who takes genuine pride in their surroundings and has a good eye for detail
- An interest in interiors, antiques or homeware would be helpful but not essential
- A positive, can-do attitude and a willingness to work as part of a small, close-knit team
- Previous retail or customer-facing experience is welcome
- Availability to work weekends is essential for this role
