I’m responsible for listening to any problems or enquiries they may experience and work with my team members to solve these. As well as this I am responsible for replenishing stock quickly on shelves with attention to detail ensuring functionality and attractiveness.My key role as a sales advisor is to achieve the daily sales targets set for the store. As a team we are expected to keep the strike rate below 5, this is the number of specific items sold in comparison to total number of customers. This has greatly improved my customer service skills and I am able to adopt different techniques to close sales with each customer. Furthermore, I have learned how to co-ordinate and forecast goals with my team members to ensure success. However, on occasions it is solely my responsibility to achieve the strike rate while my colleagues are occupied with other tasks. Therefore, self-motivation is also a key requirement for my role as a sales advisor. Show less

Specifically, I would be serving customers and assisting in the preparation of food, this required significant organisational skills and time management to ensure the co-ordination of kitchen and waiting staff in fast pace environments. Numeracy skills were also vital for taking customers payments via cash and card. At times I was also responsible for inventory checks and ordering from suppliers or reporting to the owners what stock would be needed for the following day. I would often be involved in the opening of the new locations of the business, which meant I needed to be extremely diverse and able to adapt to new and challenging situations quickly. Show less
