What will you be doing?

As a Sales Assistant, you’ll be at the heart of the action — helping pet parents, supporting your teammates, and making every customer’s visit to our store a great experience. As with most retail roles, the working week involves being ‘on your feet’ and physically active* (e.g. putting stock out which can be heavy*) but tasks are rotated in store so you’ll get involved in a bit of everything as part of a team.

Your day will include things like:

Offering genuinely friendly, helpful customer service (you’ll meet some fabulous humans and animals!)
Helping customers find what they need — and suggesting helpful extras that improve their pet’s wellbeing
Sharing advice to promote responsible pet ownership - we'll teach you what you need to know about different pets.
Keeping the store tidy, stocked and looking its best
Being part of a supportive, upbeat team that works (and laughs) together

if you would require any reasonable adjustments for carrying out the role duties you can let us know on the application form.

Let’s talk about upselling (the Jollyes way)! Yes, this is a sales role — but here’s how we do it:

We upsell suitable products to enhance customer experience, not to pressure anyone
It’s about suggesting the right treats, toys, food or accessories that genuinely help their pet live its best life
You’ll receive an induction to Jollyes with full training to build your confidence, product and pet care knowledge with a mix of manager led ‘on the job’ training and our online learning platform you can access to suit you.
Think of it as being a friendly knowledgeable guide for pet parents — not a pushy salesperson, that’s not us!

What do we need from you?
We're looking for someone who shares our values and the following characteristics:

You'll be great at interacting with pets and people and have a fun, friendly personality.
Thrives in a fast-paced, hands-on retail environment and can achieve individual goals and team targets
Ideally, you will have experience in a similar, customer facing environment and have a hands-on approach.
Most of all, you must be able to offer the highest levels of customer service and be an ambassador for the Jollyes brand, sharing our values of being: Genuine, Wise, Focused, Eager, Together.
Flexibility on your availability is required as our opening hours include evenings and weekends when our stores can be busiest. Therefore you should be flexible to cover any shifts over our 7 day trading hours.
Can commit to a part time, permanent position – 10 hours per week
