Sales Team Member
Every Step Begins with You
It takes a great team effort to make a Clarks Franchise store a success, but retail isn’t just about selling shoes. It’s about providing a fantastic shopping experience, and that’s down to the people who work in our stores. Join us as a Sales Team Member and you’ll be in the thick of the action, delighting customers and helping them find shoes they’ll adore.
The Role
From welcoming customers into your store to making sure the shop floor is spotless or lending a hand in the stockroom, you’ll take great pride in being the face of Clarks. Comfortable building rapport with customers, you’ll play an active role in every stage of the end-to end selling process and will know what it takes to close a sale. Above all, you’ll know how to give great advice and ensure each and every customer leaves the store delighted and wanting to come back for more. Join us and we’ll give you all the training and support you need to wow our customers, meet targets and be the very best you can be.
About you
Good with people and a great team player, you love nothing more than delighting customers. You thrive on the shop floor, getting hands-on with sales and keeping the tills ringing. Your natural instinct for people means you know the right moment to make suggestions and when to step back and let customers make their decision. An interest in fashion and footwear goes without saying, but it’s also important that you can promote Clarks and previous experience in a similar role would help, as would a flexible approach to hours.
Life with us
Our franchise stores look and feel exactly like a Clarks store and are run by business owners who combine their own passion for the brand, drive to succeed and local knowledge with Clarks know-how and support. For more information please see our summary on https://uk.clarksjobs.com/stores/
Over 46 million pairs of Clarks shoes are sold globally. That makes us a £1.5 billion business and a truly worldwide brand. We now have some 12,000 employees across 75 different countries – everywhere from Europe to the Americas. Despite being the world’s leading global casual footwear brand, we’re still majority owned by the Clark family and based in Street, Somerset – where the Clarks business began. Street is the nerve centre of our business, driving growth and the whole Clarks success story.
