Position Overview & Specifications

We are looking for individuals with a retail background to join our exciting sales and promotions team. We know it can be difficult to accelerate your career in retail, but the skills developed working in the retail sector transfer into other industries with greater career opportunities.

Our Office culture isn’t your typical corporate culture. Aside from the suits and ties, we have a family-focused culture. We have weekly get-togethers for company updates and drinks. Monthly team building activities, quarterly industry conferences, and annual R&R getaways.

Retail Promotions Assistant - Immediate Start - Weekly Pay £350 - £450

Location: Colchester

Our client is a team of consultants passionate about bridging the gap between the consumer and the brand. It’s how we live; it’s who we are; it’s how we work. Our team is on a mission to strive for excellence. We are looking to add to our incredible team, and we have an exciting opportunity for a Retail Promotions Assistant to join us.

Based in Colchester, our client is a face-to-face sales and marketing company. We are specialists in our field. Rather than impersonal digital marketing, we engage customers face to face.

Who We’re Looking For

As a Retail Promotions Assistant, you’ll be a brand ambassador for our clients. You will value meaningful honest conversations, which allow customers to make informed choices and you will pride yourself on ensuring that every interaction is of the highest quality.

Benefits

  • Your development is important to us - we help people to achieve their development goals by offering internal and external courses, regular coaching sessions, access to industry networking events, and a personal mentor, all bespoke to you.

  • Social events - Monthly team building activities, quarterly industry conferences, and annual R&R getaways. When people socialise outside of the office and working environment, it builds and strengthens relationships.
