Location: Loughton, Essex

Salary: £30,000 + Up to 20% Performance Bonus (OTE £36,000)

Job Reference: VRSSL08

Ambitious? Sales-driven? Ready to take your retail career to the next level?

We're partnering with a rapidly expanding, investment-backed corporate retailer operating across both B2C and B2B markets. With significant growth plans and new locations opening across the UK, this is an exciting opportunity to join a business where performance is recognised and career progression is genuinely achievable.

We're looking for a commercially minded Assistant Store Manager who loves sales, thrives on targets and knows how to turn customer conversations into revenue.

• Drive sales performance, exceed KPIs and maximise every sales opportunity.
• Convert inbound enquiries into sales while proactively generating new business.
• Build relationships with both retail customers and local businesses (B2C & B2B).
• Support the Store Manager with daily operations, team coaching and commercial performance.
• Take ownership of customer experience, revenue growth and local brand awareness.

• Proven experience in proactive, target-driven sales, ideally within telecommunications, sales-led retail, telesales or B2C/B2B environments.
• An ambitious Sales Advisor, Senior Sales Advisor or Sales Executive ready to step into management. Experienced Assistant Managers and Deputy Managers are equally welcome.
• A natural salesperson who confidently engages customers, identifies opportunities, overcomes objections and closes sales.
• A proactive approach to generating new business, building relationships and increasing local brand awareness.
• Commercially driven, energetic and motivated by achieving and exceeding sales targets.

This is a hands-on, sales-driven opportunity, not a traditional customer service or transactional retail management role.

• £30,000 basic salary + up to 20% performance bonus (OTE £36,000).
• 28 days' holiday including bank holidays.
• Additional birthday day off and volunteer day.
• Employment Hero rewards and recognition points.
• Genuine career progression within a rapidly expanding, investment-backed business.

If you're a natural salesperson with leadership potential and want more than just another retail job, we'd love to hear from you.
