[NEW] Full Time Assistant Store Manager - 37.5 hours - Permanent - Chelsea
We are looking for an Assistant Store Manager for our store in Chelsea.
The ideal candidate will bring meticulous organisation, initiative,
a good balance of independent spirit and teamwork, efficiency, profitability, drive and positivity to the business.
A day in the shop involves all sorts. This could include talking to customers, sharing product knowledge, taking photos or creating stories for Instagram, demonstrating products, selling products, stock checking, processing deliveries of stationery (the best bit), restocking, cleaning, tidying, visual merchandising, answering the phone.
It's varied, fast paced and fun. We’re a bunch of very friendly, knowledgeable, passionate people, all with an outside interest in creation of some kind, from knitting to illustration to weaving. Everyone brings great chat to the shop floor because they’re genuinely excited about creativity and probably a little
bit obsessed with stationery. We love organisation and we keep our store
immaculate. If this sounds like you then join our club.
Our aesthetic has earned us coverage by the likes of Wallpaper*, The Evening Standard, We Heart, Design Week, Cereal Magazine and Stylist, so we hold ourselves to high standards.
Duties include:
Store management
Inventory management
Visual merchandising
