The job:
Working as part of our Retail team in our new store opening in Andover, you will be a vital part of the store`s success.
We want every store visit to be exceptional for our customers, so you`ll work closely with members of the public to understand their needs and advise them on high-value purchases.
Ready to skip the snooze button and get stuck in? Here`s a taste of what you`ll be doing day-to-day...
- Making our customers feel at home through exceptional service. At Dreams, this means listening to customer`s needs and guiding them, asking the right questions at the right time to find the perfect fit.
- Being on hand every step of the way whilst customers browse in store, from greeting at the door to getting to know them and their sleep preferences.
- Becoming a Sleepmatch Master, using our market-leading sleep technology to help customers choose the right mattress just for them. Sleepmatch is our bit of wizardry that makes the bed buying process simple - you`ll love it!
- Helping to make the store look its absolute best, from general housekeeping and cleaning to updating displays.
This is the type of person we`re dreaming of:
- People-first: You will have an engaging and positive personality, plus a natural ability to bond with customers.
- Communicator: Using your excellent communications skills, you`ll be able to build rapport and establish great relationships with customers and colleagues.
- Motivated: Whilst no previous sales experience is necessary, you will need to have the determination and motivation to work towards KPIs and sales targets.
- Team player: Every dreamer plays a role in making our stores an enjoyable place to work, where each member of the team feels included and respected.
- Willing to learn: A great night`s sleep is personal, so natural curiosity and willingness to learn will make you an excellent Bed Expert.
- Flexible: You`ll need to be able to commit to working full time (38.5 hours per week). Our stores are awake 7 days a week, so you will be expected to work 5 out of 7 including weekends and bank holidays. On these busy days, you`ll have the opportunity earn even more commission!
