Things to consider

We are in somewhat “remote” area and whilst there is a local bus stop and train station, there is still a short walk (down country lanes) to access us. Therefore, own transport would be more desirable for your own benefit. Maybe a moped or pushbike would be suitable too. Experience with our products isn’t strictly necessary, if you bring great customer service and team working skills, we’ll give you everything you need to succeed. Enjoys working and supporting a team, but can be relied upon to work as an individual at all times. Keen to learn, develop skills, and progress within our industry. Product knowledge, previous retail experience or experience would be advantageous but not essential, as full training will be given to the right candidate.
