Join our friendly and hard-working team as a Yard Sales Assistant. You’ll be on the front line, dealing with customers who visit our yard. As part of the branch team, you’ll play a vital role in our continued success by delivering first-class service every day.
What will I be doing?
No two days are the same in a Travis Perkins branch, but here are some of the key things you’ll be involved in:
1. Building strong relationships with customers by providing helpful, friendly service – you’ll likely get to know many of them by name.
2. Working outside, processing customer orders, loading and unloading both customer and company vehicles.
3. Unloading building products from supplier deliveries and accurately booking them into the branch warehouse.
4. Operating a forklift (experience is great, but don’t worry – full training is provided).
5. Maintaining a safe and tidy working environment at all times, with safety as your top priority.
What skills do you need?
This is a customer-facing role, so the main thing we’re looking for is the ability to provide great service – we can teach you the rest.
Does this sound like you?
We hope you can say ‘Yes’ to the following, they’re part of the DNA of all our fantastic Yard Sales Assistants:
6. Physically active, comfortable working outside, and able to lift heavy building materials.
7. Friendly, outgoing, and happy to communicate face to face with customers.
8. Adaptable, resilient, and tenacious, with high levels of energy and drive.
9. Someone who thrives in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
