What you’ll be responsible for

• Designing for Traders and Homeowners: Using your newly gained product knowledge and design skills, you’ll create bespoke kitchen designs that meet customer needs and exceed their expectations.
• Building Lasting Relationships: You’ll get to know customers on a first-name basis, developing strong, long-term connections by delivering top-notch service and support.
• Working with Homeowners: You’ll produce accurate kitchen plans and quotes, truly understanding their project to design their ‘perfect’ kitchen while keeping Trade Customers updated throughout the process.
• Creative Flair & CAD Expertise: Using CAD, you’ll design dream kitchens that reflect the customer's vision, asking the right questions to tailor the solution to their needs.
• Networking & Collaboration: Building a strong customer base to meet targets, you’ll also work closely with the external Sales Rep to ensure customer requirements are met.
• On-Site Visits: Not all customers will come to the branch, so you’ll visit homes or building sites to create inspirational designs on CAD and present them to clients.
• Safety First: Safety is key, so you’ll ensure colleagues and customers leave the showroom safely by following all safety policies and procedures.

You’ll need to be:

• Excellent Communicator: With great communication skills, you can connect with a diverse range of individuals, from homeowners to tradespeople.
• Friendly & Outgoing: Your approachable, positive personality will shine through, making customers feel valued and building lasting relationships.
• You also will need a full valid driving licence.
