What you’ll do:
To be a Sales Assistant in one of our hospital-based stores, you need to be professional to keep customers happy. The key is to adapt your approach to each kind of person. Excellent customer service makes all the difference, as does a good grasp of current promotions. Keep standards high and you’ll go a long way to impressing customers and managers alike. And if you show you’ve got what it takes, we’ll help you progress!
Who we’re looking for:
Perhaps surprisingly, what you don’t need is bags of retail or customer service experience. We’re looking for people who have a real desire to learn and to make our customers happy! You’ll need to be a great listener, good to talk to and naturally helpful. The rest will come. And if you want to get on, we’ll positively encourage you. As a Sales Assistant, there’s nothing stopping you becoming a future Store Manager or working in one of our Head Offices!
What’s in it for you?
Join WHSmith as a Sales Assistant and you can expect a warm welcome from your team, plus the chance to launch a whole new career! With stores UK-wide there are plenty of opportunities to move around.
