You will sometimes have the support of a store staff member who will assist with deliveries and loading and unloading of any heavy items where required.

• Undertaking demonstrations and installations of mobility products
• Promoting a high level of customer service in a polite and professional way
• Completing required paperwork and forms (on a phone) for stores and Head Office
• Taking payments onsite using a card terminal or cash / cheque handling when necessary

Skills & Experience:

• Be someone with a mature, responsible outlook on life who enjoys engaging with people of all ages
• Be energetic and flexible in their approach to work, as this is a varied role
• Be a confident communicator with an enthusiastic and positive manner
• Have excellent customer service, organisational and problem-solving skills
• Be confident in using technology (tablet) to complete the required customer forms
