Saturday Jewellers Assistant - (industry experience necessary)
We are an independent jewellery design and jewellery repair company in Clapham Common.
Our founder and designer needs a Saturday Assistant on an ongoing basis. You will need to have experience either working in a retail jewellers or a workshop.
Ideally you will have a customer service background, be well spoken and well presented.
You must be able to:

Refer to a spreadsheet
Upload files
Be generally confident using a computer
Be proactive - if you don’t know something you can look it up without being asked
Calculate custom pricing
Compose a well written email
High attention to detail
Accurately record repair jobs
Take payments
Listen properly
Be security conscious
Be exceptionally patient
Sales skills including upselling

Multi-tasking is your middle name
Be capable of a bit of banter (we are a team of Gen-X / Boomers)

You will be a self-starter and the kind of person who can work on their own for extended periods of time.
Hours are 1pm to 7pm, pay is the London Living Wage (per hour) plus uncapped commission (if you love sales you could make some decent extra money)
This Saturday role is very important and we are looking for somebody who can properly commit to the role and show backbone. There is room to progress in the company rapidly as we are a verry small team. For the next 3 months we need you available every Saturday. There may be some sway to work other days now and again but Saturday is crucial.
We’ve listed the length of this role as 3 months but it could progress from temporary to permanent for the right individual.
Above all we value efficiency, resourcefulness and trustworthiness.
Thank you for reading, we look forward to hearing from you
