Job description

ARNE's retail vision is to redefine what shopping feels like. Every space we create embodies our ‘less is more' approach, understated yet elevated, blending minimal, high-quality products with a store environment that's anything but average. We're challenging the traditional retail model and setting a new standard where exceptional design, accessible pricing and meaningful customer experiences sit side by side. Following the hugely successful launch of our flagship store in Liverpool ONE, we are seeking an additional customer focused Keyholder to join our Retail Team on a temporary basis. This role will play a key part in bringing our vision to life as we enter our peak trading period. You'll be the face of ARNE, welcoming customers, sharing our story, and delivering the kind of service and experience which we believe has been missing from the Retail space. If you're passionate about fashion, love delivering exceptional customer experiences, and want to be part of a brand that's redefining retail, this is your opportunity to make an impact and help shape the future of ARNE. Whilst reporting directly to our Store Manager, you'll play a key part in driving operational efficiency, upholding our brand standards, and delivering outstanding service to every customer.
