Job description

Our Sales Associates make sure Christmas truly sparkles for our Customers!

Temporary Christmas Sales Associate - Part Time - Commission, incentives and great staff discount.

Christmas is a wonderful time in our stores. It's a time when people with a real passion for quality customer service can help us create the perfect festive atmosphere: turning every moment into a sparkling, welcoming opportunity for Amazing Customer Experiences. Whether a customer is looking for jewellery, a watch or just 'something special', you'll make sure they leave with it gift-wrapped.

Of course, Christmas isn't just for customers. You'll get something special from us, too. This is an opportunity to gain fantastic retail experience, learning quickly about our products and gaining some real jewellery expertise that you can share with customers. During Christmas, lots of customers come to our stores simply to browse - you'll answer their questions, showcase our products and use your sales skills to help the team meet targets.

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 our 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.

Your rewards

We offer a competitive salary and benefits, including sales incentives and a staff discount. The nature of our business also means you can sometimes work additional hours at times like peak trading periods, Bank Holidays and weekends.

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!

Signet is the name behind H. Samuel and Ernest Jones. Together, we have more than 270 stores in the UK and Republic of Ireland. But that's not all, we are part of the world's largest retailer of diamond jewellery with approximately 2,800 stores. Just imagine where your career could take you.

Signet Jewelers (H. Samuel & Ernest Jones) is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion.
