Redpost is an equestrian retailer that is always looking to the future. We are a growing business looking to recruit people who share our enthusiasm for what we do. Situated near Totnes in Devon we currently have an office, shop, warehouse, and cafe that facilitate the running of our online and store retail channels.
Passion beats passes
We are passionate, innovative and determined. We look for people with the right skill set for each role but the character and attitude of candidates is what matters most. We are proud of being independent and having grown from humble beginnings. This took hard work, vision and resourcefulness. We expect the same from each and every member of our team.
What we offer
We’re proud to be a family-run business, offering a supportive and positive working environment for everyone. From our beautiful, rural setting, to our delicious, discounted Cafe, there’s something for everyone at Redpost. With top-notch tea-makers and brilliant bakers, our friendly team are welcoming, fun, and passionate about what they do. It’s not just horses; we love every aspect of rural life, from long hikes on Dartmoor to a day spent with the dogs. We offer a full pension for eligible staff, a competitive salary, free parking, staff clothing, and endless opportunities to grow with us. We’re proud of what we do, and no day at Redpost is ever the same!
Due to internal promotion, we are looking for a friendly and reliable Sales Assistant to join our team on Saturdays on a permanent basis.
