Retail Sales Associate for New Building Supply Store in Åhus

Maxkompetens Sverige AB · Vollzeit

Widellsgatan 6 Widells , Kristianstad, Schweden

Do you want to be part of something from the start and help build a brand new store in Åhus? We're now looking for two retail sales associates for an established, locally rooted player in the building supply industry who is embarking on an exciting new venture. Here you'll have the opportunity to be part of a small team where you together create a store with high service levels, strong product knowledge, and personal customer care. You'll have a varied workday with close contact with both professional customers and private individuals, and you'll play an important role in building up the new operation from the ground up. Your responsibilities As a retail sales associate, you'll work broadly with sales, service, and the daily operations of the store. Since you'll be a small team, it's important that you enjoy variety and are happy to help where needed—from customer advice and sales to cash register, paint, and goods receiving. Your responsibilities include: * Providing customers with professional and personal service and advice * Working with sales of building materials and other construction-related products * Assisting customers with paint and paint-related products * Working the cash register and handling orders * Receiving, unpacking, and stocking goods * Contributing to order, structure, and a welcoming store environment * Working with colleagues to build up and develop the new operation in Åhus The position begins with introduction and training at the company's established facility on Österlen. There you'll get to know the business, the product range, and the working methods before eventually working mainly in Åhus. You therefore need to have the ability to work at both locations. If you have previous experience leading a store or a small team, there may also be an opportunity to take on expanded responsibility for the new store. Your profile We're looking for someone with experience in sales within building supplies or construction-related products who enjoys combining sales with practical store work. You have an understanding of building materials and can meet customers with both interest and curiosity. If you have knowledge in paint and color selection, that's very meriting, but not required. For the right person, there's an opportunity for training in this area. For us, your attitude is at least as important as what you already know. You're service-oriented, flexible, and unpretentious, and you enjoy working in a small team where everyone helps each other. You take responsibility for what needs to be done and have a willingness to learn more about both products and customers' various needs. Above all, you enjoy customer interactions and understand the value of going the extra mile. The business is known for its personal service, and that feeling should carry into the new store in Åhus. What we offer you We place enormous value on you as an employee at Maxkompetens. With us, you'll get a personal and unpretentious consultant manager whose primary task is to ensure you thrive at your workplace, whether you work for a short period or several years as our employee. Your consultant manager values contact with you and will both visit you at the client company, but is also available by phone and for personal meetings at the Maxkompetens office. We want nothing more than to help you develop and succeed in your job career. At the same time, we offer you the industry's best wellness allowance. Of course, we provide you with formal security when it comes to everything work-related such as salary, vacation, work environment, wellness, pension, and sick leave that comes with being an authorized staffing company. We hope you want to be part of us! Additional information * Work location: Åhus * Start: Immediately * Duration: Fixed-term employment with planned transition to the client company after 6 months * Working hours: Store hours 7-17 Monday-Friday, work every other Saturday 9-13 Selection and interviews will take place on a rolling basis in this process, so please apply at www.maxkompetens.se today!
