Look no further - join us as a Sales Assistant in Liverpool (L1 4DN). This is a part-time role working 18 hours a week in one of our busy clothing stores. Our stores are fast-paced and trade 7 days a week. This role requires flexibility to work weekends and bank holidays on a rota basis.
What does this role involve? As a Sales Assistant you'll be at the very heart of our retail operation. This is not just a standing behind the till or filling shelves type of role; we're looking for someone who will deliver a first class customer service experience. It's a fun, fast-paced environment where no two days are the same, and everyone works as a team.
Every day is different in charity retail. In addition to working on the till or sorting donations, you can expect to:
1. Engage with customers, providing exceptional service and promoting our charity's mission
2. Organise and merchandise donated stock creatively to maximise sales potential
3. Collaborate with our E-Commerce team to maximise online sales
4. As a Keyholder, you'll be the go-to person when there isn't a manager on duty, keeping the store running and ensuring our customers have a great experience. You need to be 18+ years old to apply for this role.
Please note, this role can be physically demanding and will involve moving a high volume of donation bags. You will be given lots of autonomy in your role and will strive to continually build your knowledge of BHF.
Previous retail experience isn't essential. What truly counts is your passion, energy, and ability to deliver the very best customer service. You'll be confident within a team environment and comfortable guiding the activity of volunteers on the shop floor. You should be able to work well under pressure and on your own initiative in a dynamic and fast-paced environment. Attention to detail in everything you do is crucial. We value positivity, creativity, confidence, customer service focus, and passion about sustainability. Additionally, you'll be comfortable with tech, able to use a till, PC, smartphone, and email with ease.
