Job description

Ready to build client relationships that last — at one of Canada's most exciting design destinations? We'd love to hear from you.

The King Difference

This is not just a sales role for someone who can hit a number.

This is a consultative role for someone who genuinely loves design — who can walk into a room, understand how a customer lives, and guide them toward a decision they will feel great about for years. At King Living Vancouver, the Design Consultant is our primary commercial interface with the customer. The experience you create, the relationships you build, and the trust you earn are what drive results here — not scripts and pressure tactics.

You will manage a consistent flow of premium retail and trade enquiries, take pride in a well-managed sales pipeline, and bring genuine product knowledge to every customer conversation. If you are a design-passionate sales professional who takes genuine pride in the quality of every interaction — this is the role for you.

What You Will Own

Consultative Customer Experience

Build strong customer relationships and deliver a high level of service face to face and over the phone — guiding customers through their purchasing journey with design expertise and genuine care.

Pipeline Management & Sales Performance

Follow up on leads, quotes and enquiries to convert opportunities into sales — working collaboratively with the team to maximise performance during campaigns and promotions.

Showroom & Brand Standards

Maintain showroom presentation to the highest standard in line with Visual Merchandising guidelines — ensuring every area reflects the King Living brand with pride and professionalism.

Systems & Administration

Use in-house systems to process and manage sales orders efficiently and accurately.

Who You Are

You will likely come from a retail sales, textiles, interior design or customer-facing role where relationship building and design knowledge are the primary performance drivers. What matters most is your passion for design, your natural ability to connect with customers, and your commitment to doing the work well.

You are a design-passionate sales professional who builds real relationships — and you are ready for an environment where that is exactly what is valued and rewarded.

• Proven experience in retail sales, textiles or interior design with a keen eye for detail
• Confident communication skills — written and verbal
• A passion for sales and a natural ability to build lasting customer relationships
• A quick learner who can understand customer needs and respond with the right solutions
• Basic to intermediate computer skills
• Comfortable standing for long periods and demonstrating products
• Available for regular weekend work
