Retail Assistance

You will be working in a retail environment and will be expected to help customers with all their shopping requirements. Sales assistants work in an extremely fast-paced sector and you can expect every single working day to be completely different. Unlike those who work behind desks or sit in office meetings, you will be at the front line helping customers directly. Here is a quick look at your job requirements as a sales assistant:

• Advising & serving customers.
• Processing payments.
• Assisting customers in order to help them find what they need.
• Ensuring stock levels are well maintained.
• Promoting store cards or special offers.
• Providing customers with information on pricing and product availability.
• Arranging window displays.
• Handling customer complaints or handing customers on to management.

You will be expected to have an outgoing personality and possess excellent knowledge of the company’s products and services. It may also be necessary to have a good working knowledge of computer systems and other machines relevant to the role.
