Main Responsibilities

As a Sales Assistant at Beaverbrooks, you'll passionately sell stunning diamonds, jewellery and watches, creating moments that will last a lifetime for every customer, every time. You'll encourage love and appreciation for our products, by knowing each one of them and what makes them special. You'll listen and take the time to identify our customers' needs and how much they'd like to spend on something really special, so you can help them find the perfect item for their occasion.

There's a lot to learn about the products, the people and the Beaverbrooks Way, and you'll be prepared for accountability. The truth is, you're going to have to work hard if you want to keep up - but, believe us, you'll want to.

Ideal Candidate

You'll have a passion for the customer experience and a down to earth approach, and love working with colleagues who share the same values and commitment to amazing service. You know how important it is to listen to customers and be open and honest with them, and you're driven by the chance to turn the everyday into the extraordinary. Maybe you'll have some merchandising experience to enhance your ability to create the extraordinary. We'll train you if not, but one thing's for sure-you'll certainly have a great eye for detail and what good looks like. As well as a brilliant instinct, you'll also know that you're going to have to put plenty in to get out what you want.
