As a Branch Assistant, you will be the face of our wholesale branch, providing excellent customer service on the Trade Counter to trade professionals and members of the public whilst taking ownership of shop displays to highlight promotions and store offers.
Our wholesale branches are a little different to a normal retail store, we have a trade counter instead of a shop floor, a warehouse instead of a stockroom alongside a sales team & delivery driver - This means that no 2 days are the same for our Branch Assistants.
Your days will vary from selling products on the trade counter, calling customers to build rapport and drive customer loyalty, and to popping into the warehouse to pick & pack items to ensure customers’ orders are completed on time.
Do you have the passion to provide great customer service, willingness to learn all elements of the operation and enjoy working as part of a team, we want to hear from you!
