Job description:

About Us

Anglia Healthcare & Mobility Ltd provide high-quality mobility and furniture equipment both in-store and online. Known for our outstanding customer service and welcoming, inclusive work environment, we take pride in helping individuals live more independently and comfortably.

Our showrooms are among the largest in the region, offering a wide selection of mobility products - including mobility scooters, powered chairs, walking aids, wheelchairs, stairlifts, rise-and-recline chairs, and adjustable beds and many more.

The Role

We are seeking a proactive and experienced Sales Assistant to support the day-to-day operations of our Huntingdon branch. This is a hands-on role, ideal for someone with a passion for retail sales, a caring nature, and a desire to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives.

You will support the Showroom Manager in overseeing both showroom and online sales operations, offering expert advice to customers and ensuring an exceptional shopping experience. This role blends customer-facing sales with operational and leadership duties.

Key Responsibilities

Deliver exceptional customer service by understanding individual needs and offering tailored product recommendations (full product training provided).

Support the showroom manager with daily operations, team coordination, and performance oversight.

Handle in-store and telephone enquiries with professionalism and empathy.

Ensure the showroom is well-presented, stocked, and compliant with health and safety standards.

Manage sales transactions, documentation, repairs management and assist in ordering and stock control.

Support local marketing, promotional events, and online sales efforts to drive store growth.

Assist with deliveries and product handling, including some moderate lifting.

Preparing and labelling online orders.

You will also be helping in processing daily online customer orders from various platforms, printing shipping labels, and preparing orders in the warehouse. You will also handle returned items, ensuring they are properly repackaged and restocked.

Skills & Experience

Proven retail or showroom sales experience, ideally in a customer-facing role within a similar product category (mobility, furniture, or healthcare products preferred).

Strong interpersonal and communication skills with a natural ability to build trust and rapport.

Empathetic, patient, and confident in supporting customers with varying physical needs.

Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage time, prioritise tasks, and handle operational challenges.

A positive, ‘can-do’ attitude with a hands-on approach to leadership.

IT literate with proficiency in communication tools and sales systems.

Flexible with work hours to support business needs. You will be required to work on Saturdays and will receive a day off in lieu.

Personal Qualities

You must be a physically fit and active individual.

Sales-focused and commercially aware with a strong drive to meet and exceed targets.

Creative problem solver with a proactive mindset and attention to detail.

Team-oriented, dependable, and committed to maintaining a warm, welcoming showroom environment.

Loyal, professional, and motivated by long-term career development.

Additional Information

This is a permanent position, and we are open to both full-time and part-time applicants. Full product and systems training will be provided over a structured 3–6-month period, with hours and scheduling tailored as needed for part-time staff. We are looking for individuals committed to growing with the business and contributing long-term. This role is not suitable for those seeking short-term, casual, or transitional work.

Why Join Anglia Healthcare & Mobility Ltd?

Work with a supportive, family-oriented team.

Make a real impact by helping customers improve their quality of life.

Enjoy a positive and inclusive work environment with long-term growth opportunities.

Receive full training and support to succeed in your role.

If you're a motivated sales professional with a heart for helping others and leadership potential, we’d love to hear from you

Job Types: Full-time, Part-time

Pay: £12.75-£16.50 per hour

Application question(s):

What interests you about working in the mobility and healthcare sector, and what motivates you to help customers who may be facing mobility, health, or independence challenges?
Please describe your previous experience that you believe is most relevant to this role. Include examples of customer service, retail sales, showroom sales, healthcare-related work, or any experience where you have provided advice and support to customers.
This role requires flexibility, including regular Saturday working, with a day off in lieu provided during the week. Our showroom opening hours are 9:30am to 5:00pm. Please describe your availability and how you would manage the flexibility required for this position.
A key part of this role is learning about mobility products and explaining their features and benefits to customers. Please provide an example of a time when you had to learn about a technical product or service and explain it clearly to customers or colleagues. How did you ensure they understood the information?
This position includes practical tasks such as preparing orders, handling stock, and assisting with the delivery and setup of mobility equipment in customers’ homes some times. Please describe any experience you have with hands-on, physical, or delivery-related work, and explain how comfortable you are working in customers’ homes.
