- Confidence in dealing with customers and delivering high standards of service
- Willingness to turn your hand to a variety of tasks and complete each to a good standard
- Pride in your work and strong attention to detail
- Ability to work well with people from all walks of life
- Previous experience in customer service is an advantage, but not essential — full training will be provided
- An interest in antiques or history would be a bonus
