Your Responsibilities:
Customer Service - Through your own passion for sport, you’ll share
your tips and experiences with users and through our hands-on product
training you will be able to give the best technical advice for the sports
you are responsible for. Decathlon has shifted over the last year into an
omnichannel business so it’s essential that our sales assistants are able
to assist customers in all aspects of retail shopping, whether that’s in
store or online!
Merchandising - Whether full time or part time, every Sales
Assistant is encouraged to take responsibility to autonomously manage
stock levels and pricing and to provide a high level of merchandising so
that each customer can easily find the right product for their sporting
practice.
Team Player - You will be part of a shop floor team of like-minded
Sales Assistants, practicing sport and celebrating victories together, so
it’s important that you are able to work well within a team environment as
well as independently.
