The results of which are now being seen, with record market share growth, a new and improved product range, a new website and six new stores - including a pipeline for future expansion over the next five years. With no minimum purchase, the Majestic range includes over 1,100 different wines, spirits and beers, both online and in-store. Majestic’s key strength is over 1,000 WSET-trained colleagues offering knowledgeable, passionate and friendly customer service across all channels.

The Role

As a Sales Assistant you’ll be supporting your store team with driving sales performance and the day-day running of your store. You’ll deliver exceptional customer service and experience to optimise KPI performance.

• Take accountability and pride for the physical appearance and maintenance of your store both internally & externally
• Involvement in all operational tasks required for the day-day operational running a Majestic Wine store - from delivering wine to our customers, merchandising stock deliveries and calling our valued customers to drive sales opportunities.

Knowledge & Skills Required
• Excellent time-management, delegation and problem-solving skills
• Be able to demonstrate your ability to deliver exceptional customer experience & service to every single customer

• A can-do attitude with a passion for seeing problems through to solutions
• Adaptable and resilient to meet the ever-changing demands of our business
• Excellent communication and time management skills
