Sales Associate (part-time 15 hrs)

Join us now for the chance to be part of an amazing team and be responsible for providing our customers with a memorable shopping experience!

We’re looking for a passionate Sales Associate (perm, part-time 15 hrs) to join our Dickies lifestyle store based in Carnaby Street, London .

As a Sales Associate you will inspire our customers, deliver an excellent service, and help maintain the highest standards on our shop floor.

Dickies has spent nearly a century crafting innovative workwear known for its performance, durability and comfort. Since 1922, Dickies continues its long legacy of designing quality workwear and work-inspired apparel at a price anyone can afford. What began as a humble denim bib overall company has grown into a worldwide force, weaving together cultural movements with a rigorous commitment to straightforward style and long-lasting ingenuity.

In 2017, Dickies was acquired by VF Corporation, the parent company of global powerhouse brands such as Vans®, The North Face® and Timberland®. Powerful brands that are fueled by insights and innovation put us at the heart of our consumers’ lives. Many of our brands lead their respective categories, and some have risen to iconic status. VF is the ideal steward to honor the Dickies heritage while providing a platform for growth that ensures continued success for another century.  We are a purpose-led company that seeks not only to succeed in business, but also to leverage our success and resources to make the world better. We power movements of sustainable and active lifestyles for the betterment of people and our planet.

Let’s talk about the role!

We believe that our Sales Associates have a great opportunity to develop their full potential with us. That’s because we offer the support of a global organisation but empower our people to take responsibility at store level.

*How you’ll make a difference   *

We expect that our Sales Associates help deliver a memorable retail experience by:

• Providing the highest level of customer service, ensuring that all customers are treated with respect

• Developing a thorough knowledge of products in store

• Maintaining merchandising standards in accordance with brand guidelines

• Keeping up to date with current trends and the brand’s place within the market

• Following all operational procedures in the store and in the stock room.

What makes you the perfect Sales Associate?

• You are passionate about our brand, fashion, and retail in general

• You have excellent written and verbal communication in English (another language is a plus but not necessary)

Previous experience is great but not necessary. What matters most of all is that you live and demonstrate our Guiding Principles: Live with Integrity, Act Courageously, Be Curious, Act with Empathy, and Persevere.

What’s in it for you?

We offer comprehensive benefits that encourage mental, physical and financial well-being for all VF associates. When it comes to benefits, we’re the total package.

• Career ownership, enabling you to build your knowledge and experience across different brands

• A supportive feedback-based culture where respect and integrity guide us in what we do

• Tailored training. From an induction to ongoing online and face-to-face training sessions, we are committed to helping you grow, both professionally and personally
