Job Description
WE ARE HIRING!
We are regarded as the trusted decorating and DIY retail brand in London, selling paint, tools, plumbing, electrical and woodwork materials throughout our 33 stores. As part of the Grafton Group we have the stability and support of a leader in the field of Building Materials and DIY Retail.
We’ll be running a Recruitment Open Day in our Acton Store on 11th September between +.00 and 16.00. We are looking for full time Retail Sales Assistants and Trade Sales Assistants for our stores in London. The positions are both full time and part time including weekends.
Let’s paint the picture for you! We do retail differently!
At Leyland SDM, you won’t spend countless hours stuck on a till. Instead you'll spend your days on the shop floor assisting trade and retail customers with all their DIY, decorating and building material needs; offering advice and guidance on a vast range of products and services.
We are the specialists, and our customers are loyal to our expertise and knowledge.
Don’t worry if you’ve never worked in DIY before, you’ll receive all the product training you need; you bring your outgoing personality, and we’ll do the rest! Our environments are very sociable, and whether we're mixing paint, providing outstanding service, managing deliveries or keeping the store looking its best, we do it with enthusiasm, knowing our customers will keep coming back.
What key skills and experience are we looking for?
• Confident communication skills – You will be interacting with customers everyday
• “Can do” attitude - We work better together, going the extra mile every day for each other, and our customers
• Appetite to learn – whether it’s the products we sell, mixing paint, or other in-store services and store procedures – the opportunities will be endless!
• Flexibility – Our stores are open 7 days a week, with opening times generally 6:30am – 6pm with reduced hours at the weekends
How we will reward you
• Competitive salary and bonus opportunity
• Pension scheme with enhanced employer contributions
• Enhanced Maternity/paternity leave
• Health cash plan claim money back on everyday healthcare needs and treatments (Dental, physio, prescriptions to name a few)
• Employee discounts across the Grafton group and other high street stores
• Training and development programmes/ apprenticeships
• Company sick pay
• Share saving scheme into our parent company, the Grafton Group
• Early Pay – the ability to withdraw your salary in advance
• Paid day off for Volunteering
• Life assurance
• Cycle to work scheme
• Refer a friend scheme
In addition, you will be working for a well-established, successful and growing company in the heart of the trade. If you are passionate about customer service and are looking to further your career in retail, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
