You care about what you do and take pride in doing things properly. You bring energy, stay humble and do not let ego get in the way. You are the kind of person who gets stuck in, solves problems and follows through on what you say you are going to do. No job is beneath you, you put the customer first, and when things do not go to plan, you adapt, find a way forward and go again. You think, you act and you get stuff done.

• Confidence taking responsibility for opening, closing and supporting shifts
• Strong communication skills and a naturally customer-focused approach
• A genuine interest in fashion, retail and product
