HOW WILL YOU MAKE AN IMPACT?
As an ambassador for Alaia in London, you are responsible for welcoming clients to the boutique, introducing them to the heritage of our maison and ultimately ensuring an exceptional customer experience, whilst achieving sales targets. A key focus for the team is CRM activity and cultivating a loyal client-base for both the brand and boutique. It is vital that this individual is proactive about nurturing genuine customer relationships and developing a successful client book.
Working within the flagship boutique, KPI’s & sales targets are of the upmost significance. Having the ability to work both individually and as a team will be of great importance when trying to achieve sales within a competitive retail environment.

With this responsibility in mind, you will need to have an authentic approach with clients and demonstrate strong communication skills. We are looking for individuals who are naturally proactive and take initiative.

The existing team would welcome a co-operative colleague, who contributes in all daily operations and additional projects.
HOW DO WE KEEP YOU SMILING?
As a significant member of the Alaia community, you are also part of a much bigger family at Richemont.
