Job description

Our store teams are made up of customer‑first people with a real passion for outstanding service, creating amazing experiences and lasting memories for our customers. Our team members work hard to develop outstanding product knowledge and real jewellery expertise that they can share with our customers.

As a committed and dedicated member of the team, you'll play a key role in helping the store to maintain performance and meet sales targets. As new products are introduced in store, you will build your knowledge to ensure that you can deal with every type of customer enquiry.

As the face of H. Samuel, we want you to reflect our brand, culture and customers. You certainly won't find our Store team members suited and booted. Instead, we're proud of our team's unique personalities and to showcase this we have a fashion conscious, business casual dress code, which encourages our teams to celebrate their own tattoo's, piercings and style!

Your background

You'll have a passion for putting the customer first and creating memorable customer experiences. While you may not specifically have jewellery experience, you will certainly have an interest in jewellery products and brands. A positive, 'can-do' attitude is essential, with a natural ability for striking up a conversation with a diverse range of customers.

Jewellery, Watch & Gift Retail is truly unique!

In any of our H. Samuel stores you'll see our knowledgeable team members devote their days to sharing and celebrating special life‑changing moments with our customers. We love that we are a key part in making an engagement, a wedding or the celebration of a loved‑one's Birthday even more special by ensuring our customers discover the perfect piece to mark the occasion. Ours is an environment like no other. Join us - Be part of something special!

What's next?

When you submit your application, you will be invited to complete a short online assessment.

If successful, you will be asked to complete a short video which gives you the opportunity to tell us a little more about you and why you would like to join us.

Successful applicants will be contacted by the store manager inviting you to the final stage interviews.

We recommend to regularly check your emails to ensure you don't miss any updates with your application.

What is also really amazing about Signet are the career development opportunities. If you've got potential, we'll help you fulfil it. We've got the training and development programmes in place to really help you make the most of your talent!

Be part of something special!
