Job description

By adopting the values of Style & Truth across the whole business - from recruitment to product - we safeguard the long term health of the brand and create more than just fashion.

A bit about us

Founded in 1970, Jigsaw was the first premium fashion brand on the high street. Since then, the company has expanded worldwide to work with the finest mills, cutting edge photographers, up-and-coming models, and renowned architects. But the search for the best in the industry never stops.

As our journey continues, we're looking for a warm, passionate, talented, and friendly Part Time Style Advisor to join our team in Kingston. You will be working 12 hours per week.

Here, you'll learn about Style & Truth: a set of values that sets us apart from the rest of the high street, a belief that everyone should feel empowered to embrace their own style, be true to themselves, and not slavishly follow the fashion world.

This is a fabulous opportunity for someone who wants to start or resume a career in fashion - whether you've taken a career break, taken time to start or look after your family, or just have an interest in fashion - we want to hear from you!

Similarly, if you have any challenges or need any reasonable adjustments if offered an interview, please let us know, and we can make sure the interview is right for you!

What you'll be doing

1. You will be engaging our customers in a warm and personal way that ensures they receive the best in-store experience and that their individual style needs are met and adapted to through first-class customer service, tailored questioning, observations, brand, and product knowledge.
2. You will control tills and handle financial transactions.
3. Working with your team, you will support with deliveries, merchandising, and replenishing stock, ensuring the store is kept clean and tidy in line with our health and safety policies and upholding the high standards of our brand.
4. You will take responsibility for your personal development and actively seek opportunities for improvement, to grow personally and professionally as part of our dynamic business.
5. Undertake any other reasonable duty as directed by your management team.

In return, some examples of our comprehensive benefits package include:

• Fantastic staff discount schemes - up to 50% (and 70% on 5 items per season)
• Generous seasonal uniform allowance
• Bonus scheme
• Life assurance
• Pension
• Access to the Unum, Help@Hand Support, our benefits provider, for a whole host of resources, support, and discounts
