Seasonal Sales Assistant

Diversity matters

We are building a brand that represents the people of the world. It\’s what you do that counts, and we are always looking to expand perspectives and voices to shape our future.

We see you, we celebrate you, we want you!

Who we are

You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there\’s more to this great-smelling, partly employee-owned, family-run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that capitalism can be a force for good.

The Living Wage Foundation\’s statement \’a hard day\’s work deserves a fair day\’s pay\’ is one that we are proud to commit to in the UK. As an accredited Living Wage employer, we put our people first and fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that it is what\’s inside that counts – whether that\’s an ingredient in a product, or the minerals in a smartphone.

The role

Sales Assistants are the heartbeat of our business, consistently delivering outstanding customer service year-round. We\’re seeking individuals who are not just passionate and motivated but also enthusiastic about showcasing our beautiful products. As an excellent team player, you\’ll actively engage in giving and receiving feedback, contributing to the growth of our collective skills.

You\’ll go beyond the basics by asking insightful questions to understand each customer\’s needs, and showcasing our products through captivating demonstrations. Support their purchasing decisions by confirming interest through thoughtful questions and securing sales. Your role includes offering shop tours with intelligent link sales, crafting personalized routines, and providing pampering sit-down consultations, including decadent hand and arm massages as part of your daily routine.

Through in-depth training on our products and ingredients, you\’ll become a Lush Ambassador, embodying our ethics and values to our customers. Your crucial role will help create the ultimate experience for our guests, ensuring we offer the best service on the high street!
