Love working with people? Enjoy the fast pace of retail and the buzz of hitting a goal?
If you're confident, approachable and enjoy turning everyday conversations into great customer experiences, this Retail Sales Assistant job in Chelmsford could be your next move.
We're looking for an enthusiastic Retail Sales Assistant to join our growing team. You'll combine great customer service with a natural sales approach, understanding what customers need, introducing them to relevant products and helping them make confident buying decisions.
It's social, fast-moving and results-focused, with plenty of opportunities to develop along the way.
More than just making a sale
The best retail salespeople don't push products. They listen.
You'll spend your day meeting different customers, asking the right questions and recommending solutions that genuinely suit what they're looking for.
