Requirements

  • Positive, hands on, and eager to bring your own ideas to the table, you’ll feel right at home with us.
  • You’ve got plenty of customer service experience, along with a love of all things home improvement.
  • You’ll be happy to expand your skills by using new technology and learning new ways of working.
  • You’re flexible too – able to cover store opening hours on a rota basis, including evenings, weekends and bank holidays.
  • And, perhaps most importantly, you know how to keep a team motivated, engaged, and pulling together as one.

Responsibilities

  • We’re thinking more ambitiously about how our stores can offer our customers even more.
  • Creating a store within a store, you’ll get to think big too.
  • You’ll make things happen – setting standards, coming up with ideas, and finding fresh ways to make your team and department the best they can be.
  • You’ll keep customer service levels high and use your customer knowledge to spot opportunities to give them even more.
  • It’ll be your department to run.
  • But, because we’re so big on teamwork, you won’t tackle the challenge alone.
