We are on the lookout for a customer experience driven sales leader who still loves to be involved in the day-to-day sales and building relationships with customers, as well as working closely with the Store Manager to develop the next generation of sales leaders.

You will ideally have experience as an Assistant Store Manager/ 2IC/ Team Leader/ Senior Sales Consultant with a successful track record of sales under your belt and demonstrated potential to step into a leadership role. You thrive in a goal driven environment and get a buzz out of achieving targets and a healthy competition. You understand the importance of strategic communication and running a tight ship, when it comes to operational elements such as store standards, stock management, cost controls etc.

You don’t need to have experience in flooring however we have found experience in a relevant field or interest in interior design and home decoration/styling helped new team members to get up to speed fast

For home improvement products (such as flooring and wall-to-wall carpet), the sales process starts in the showroom and generally is closed by the same salesperson at the customer’s home once they complete the measurements and can provide a complete quote. Therefore a valid driver’s licence and access to a vehicle is a requirement of the role.

**ABOUT YOUR NEW ROLE**

At its core, this is a leadership role that provides right hand support to the Store Manager to drive stores sales, customer experience and efficient running of the operations in-store. You will assist the Liverpool Store Manager with delivering the following duties:

- Setting and communicating daily and weekly targets and results to your team. Guiding, training, developing and supporting the team in achieving their goals.
