Assistant Store Manager Sales Focused

Mitcham, South West London

Salary: Up to -35,000 + Bonus | OTE -42,000

Are you a natural salesperson who loves closing deals, building relationships and leading a team to success?

We''re looking for an ambitious, commercially driven Assistant Store Manager to join a growing, forward-thinking business in Morden.

This isn''t your typical retail management role. We''re looking for someone who thrives in a consultative sales environment, knows how to turn enquiries into revenue and genuinely enjoys getting to know their customers.

If you''ve built your career in high-value sales, premium retail, telesales or a target-driven customer environment, and have experience managing a small team, we''d love to hear from you!

The Opportunity

Working alongside the Store Manager, you''ll play a key role in driving commercial performance, developing your team and delivering an exceptional customer experience.

You''ll be hands-on with sales, confident handling enquiries and passionate about converting opportunities into results.

What will you be doing?

• Taking ownership of the sales journey, from initial enquiry through to closing the deal.

• Using a consultative approach to understand customer needs and recommend the right solutions.

• Coaching, motivating and developing a small team to exceed sales targets.

• Identifying opportunities to maximise revenue, conversions and customer retention.

• Building strong customer relationships and delivering a premium service.

• Supporting the Store Manager with daily operations, performance reporting and commercial decisions.

• Taking the lead when the Store Manager is away.

Who Are We Looking For?

We''re more interested in your sales ability and leadership potential than the industry you''ve worked in.

You''ll ideally bring:

• A proven background in consultative, high-ticket or solution-based sales.

• Experience supervising, coaching or managing a small team.

• A strong track record of achieving and exceeding sales targets.

• Confidence handling inbound enquiries, following up leads and closing sales.

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to build rapport quickly.

• A proactive, competitive mindset with a genuine passion for delivering results.

• A commercial approach, with the confidence to identify opportunities and drive performance.

Experience in telesales, premium retail, automotive sales, property, memberships or other relationship-led sales environments would be particularly interesting.

You''ll need to live within approximately 30 minutes of Morden.

What''s In It For You?

• Basic salary up to -35,000

• Realistic OTE of -42,000 through monthly bonuses and commission

• 25 days'' holiday plus bank holidays

• Your birthday off!

• Additional performance-related rewards and recognition
